Description
On verso:
No. 282. GRAND FALLS OF YELLOWSTONE RIVER, 360 FEET HIGH.
When Yellowstone Park was set aside to be forever the grand tourist resort of the people and their common property, few had any idea of the endless variety and stupendous grandeur of the wonders embraced in this tract of land, measuring 55 by 65 miles.
John Muir says in “Our National Parks”: “Here are hills of sparkling crystals, hills of sulphur, hills of glass, hills of cinders and ashes, mountains of every style of architecture, icy or forested, mountains covered with honey-bloom sweet as Hymettus, mountains boiled soft like potatoes and colored like a sunset sky. “A’ that and a’ that, and twice as muckle’s a that,” nature has on show in the Yellowstone Park.
The park is one of the grandest places in the country for a good wholesome rest. Few other places also afford the variety of game fish that Yellowstone Park does. The genuine grayling the rainbow and Lochleven, the mountain and eastern brook trout are all here in abundance. The park is a veritable fishermen’s paradise.
