Yellowstone’s Ranger-Naturalists are always on hand to give interesting explanations of the numberless wonders of the Park.
Giant Geyser, though an irregular performer, is the largest in the Park. At full discharge it sends its huge stream of boiling water and steam from 200 to 250 feet in the air. The rumble and roar of the geysers can be heard for long distances in the clear mountain air.
Across the Firehole River clouds of drifting steam mark the Firehole Geyser Basin—another reason why beautiful Yellowstone is the most photographed of our National Parks.
There is an enclosed swimming pool and a museum. A variety of short walking trips may be taken with the ranger-naturalists, and longer trips made on horseback with colorful wranglers who know the phenomena of the Park.
Old Faithful Inn itself is built wholly of native materials. Within its friendly walls, you dine, dance, play and meet congenial fellow travelers before the great open fireplace.
The following day, your caravan moves on from Old Faithful past the beautiful Kepler Cascades of the Firehole, and over the Continental Divide. Here is the Rocky Mountain watershed that sends the rivers on one side flowing down to the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico, and on the other side, to the Pacific. To the south lie Shoshone Lake and the snowy peaks of the Teton range.
