In this episode we get into one of our favorite places to study and teach the geosciences, Yellowstone National Park!  Yellowstone was the United State's first National Park, and arguably the first park of its kind in the world, but there is so much more!  We discuss some of the interesting biology and geology going on in Yellowstone National Park, including cutthroat trout, how elk affect beavers, and the super volcano that created the landforms we see today!  Morale of the story, we love Yellowstone National Park, and if you haven't been there, check it out someday soon!If you are intrigued about our discussion of the Snake River Plain and want to know more, please check out this excellent webpage created by Paul Link at Idaho State University.  Also, if you have the time, check out Craters of the Moon National Park next time you are in Idaho; it completes the story of Yellowstone's volcanic history! All in all, Yellowstone National Park is one of the premier geologic features on the planet!  Join the PlanetGeo discussion by contacting us at our website or reaching out via email!——————————————————Instagram: @planetgeocastTwitter: @planetgeocastFacebook: @planetgeocastEmail: planetgeocast@gmail.comWebsite: https://www.planetgeocast.com/
