DESTINATION
Yellowstone
On March 1, 1872, President Ulysses S. Grant signed the Yellowstone National Park Protection Act, establishing Yellowstone National Park as the world's first national park.
The act protected the region's natural and cultural resources.
The act set aside a tract of land near the headwaters of the Yellowstone River as a public park.
The land is located in the Territories of Montana and Wyoming.
Yellowstone played a critical role in the conservation of public lands and wild spaces.
Many see Yellowstone as the ultimate success story in biodiversity, as it's home to the largest concentration of wildlife in the lower 48.
