                          NATURE'S WONDERLAND


Truly, Yellowstone National Park is a wonderland of nature. Poets have
written about it, and artists have painted it, but to believe that such
a scenic region is possible, you must see with your own eyes the
spouting geysers, bubbling cauldrons, giant canyons and other
spectacular phenomena, all of which present a flashing brilliance of
motion and color which you will never forget.

Yellowstone is the largest, the oldest and, perhaps, the best known of
America's many national parks. It is at once weird, incredible and
magnificent in its rugged, wild beauty. It is one of the greatest
wild-life sanctuaries in the world.

Frontiersman John Colter discovered the fabulous area by chance in the
winter of 1807-08. Colter had been sent by the celebrated trader, Manuel
Lisa, to Pierre's Hole in eastern Idaho to make friends with the Crow
Indians. Coming home Colter sought a short cut and stumbled upon the
mystery of Yellowstone. When he told his friends of the fantastic land
he had seen, they refused to believe him.

[Illustration: John Colter discovers Yellowstone]

Twenty years later Jim Bridger brought back a report similar to
Colter's, but he, too, was greeted with winks and smiles. Finally,
however, the Washburn-Doane Expedition, headed by H. D. Washburn,
Surveyor-General of Montana, was organized in August 1870, and
accompanied by an army detail, officially investigated the phenomena in
the Park.

They encountered innumerable fascinating wonders that even Colter,
Bridger and other explorers had missed. They were determined that
Yellowstone should be preserved in all its primeval beauty for the
enjoyment of all Americans. Their enthusiasm was boundless. Largely
because of their efforts a bill was passed through Congress on March 1,
1872, and the rugged wilderness was set aside as Yellowstone National
Park.

Since that time millions of travelers have seen the glory that is
Yellowstone's. Thousands return year after year. Still others come only
once, but they consider it the trip of a lifetime.




                              GRAND TETON


A few miles south of Yellowstone is Grand Teton National Park, set aside
by the government in 1929. Grand Teton and the surrounding country have
many distinctive features.

[Illustration: Jackson Lake and the Tetons]

Grand Teton is noted for its mountain grandeur. Many of its jagged,
towering peaks of granite rear their heads upward 10 to 13 thousand or
more feet. In many respects they resemble the famed Alps of Europe.

Lying at the base of these towering spires are lakes of sapphire-blue,
and round about are forests and verdant meadowlands.

Here the visitor feels the tang of the Old West. Central lodges and
sleeping cabins are available. Safe saddle trails reach out in all
directions.

Motorboats and rowboats as well as trusty saddle ponies may be rented at
nominal charges.




                        SEEING YELLOWSTONE PARK


You may see Yellowstone National Park in your own way. Roam the trails
alone, or with an experienced guide, as you prefer. But, by all means,
bring your camera!

Yellowstone is _your_ park! It has been provided with fine roads and
modern hotels so that you may enjoy its wonders in comfort. You are
genuinely welcome to come and stay as long as you like. You could easily
stay all summer and never exhaust the alluring appeal, the charm, and
tonic effect of Yellowstone's beauty. However, if you can stay for only
a limited period, you can still see all the principal points of
interest.

You can live as modestly or as lavishly as your choice dictates. In
traveling about the Park you may select the style of accommodations that
appeals most to you. You can go by Park motor bus with other visitors,
or by yourself in a private automobile. Such automobiles are available
for hire at government-approved rates.

Splendid camping sites may be found in all parts of the Park. At the
main centers of interest are modern hotels, as well as clean,
comfortable cabins. Service and accommodations are excellent and one
cannot help but marvel at such comfort and luxury in the depths of the
wilderness.

[Illustration: Devil's Punch Bowl]

[Illustration: Lower Falls and Yellowstone Canyon]

So that visitors may see as much of the Park as possible, in a limited
amount of time, pre-arranged tours by motor bus are operated. These
tours are especially appreciated by folks who travel by rail to
Yellowstone. The tour consumes just two and one-half days. Leisure stops
are made to properly see all the chief scenic attractions. Another
advantage of selecting a pre-arranged tour is that it eliminates the
anxiety of driving your own car over unfamiliar mountain roads. Without
stress and strain, completely relaxed, you're all the more free to enjoy
Yellowstone's wondrous sights.

[Illustration: Modern Yellowstone bus leaving Old Faithful Inn]

Bus drivers in Yellowstone Park are thoroughly competent and reliable.
Also, Ranger Naturalists of the National Park Service provide many
enlightening bits of information on the formations, the flora and fauna
in their talks and on guided walks.




                       WEST YELLOWSTONE ENTRANCE


The Union Pacific route to Yellowstone National Park takes visitors to
West Yellowstone, Montana, right on the Park border, and the nearest
entrance to Old Faithful Geyser, Yellowstone's most famous attraction.
Here, amid the fragrance of the pine forests, the railroad maintains
West Yellowstone Station, and an attractive dining lodge.

Upon arriving at the station you have a short time for refreshments; a
brief glimpse of the rustic village; mailing cards; buying souvenirs, or
perhaps making a few necessary purchases. Then you're ready to climb
into a comfortable motor bus for the trip to Old Faithful region.

The first day's ride is a preview of the promise that Yellowstone will
fulfill. Along the way you will be constantly amazed by a continuous
series of pulse-quickening sights ... green, virgin forests; National
Park Mountain; glimpses of the Madison River, and charming views of
distant mountains.

Presently the chatter of the cascades of Firehole River is heard. This
is one of Yellowstone's most bewitching waterfalls. Oddly enough, while
the waters are warmed from geysers and hot springs, the river is alive
with trout.




                       FIRST VIEW OF THE GEYSERS


In the Lower Geyser Basin, Yellowstone parts the curtain and stages a
gigantic thermal exhibit. Here the first geysers come into view. There
they are! Dipping and skyrocketing; spears of boiling water belch
upward, dazzling white against the backdrop of blue skies and forest
greenery. For size, number, power and action, no other geysers in the
world compare to those of Yellowstone.

In the west and south-central parts of the Park are six major geyser
basins. Each contains a number of geysers, pools and springs. This
spectacular section of Yellowstone is extremely fascinating. In the
Lower Basin are numerous well-known geysers, but in the Upper Basin
famous Old Faithful probably will attract your first attention.
Moreover, near by is Old Faithful Inn, where you will want to stay for
one or more delightful, pleasure-filled days.

Park Ranger Naturalists have prepared an interesting display at Old
Faithful which reveals the intricate operation of geysers. An artificial
miniature geyser has been constructed and its working parts may be seen
and understood. In reality a geyser is a hot spring that has developed
into a fountain. A plume of water shoots upward at nearly boiling
temperature. The hot volcanic rocks beneath the earth create steam and
give the geyser force. At Yellowstone the subterranean action is near
the earth's surface and the geysers act as safety valves in draining off
this excess energy.

[Illustration: Off to view Yellowstone's wonders from horseback]

[Illustration: Riverside Geyser throws its column over the Firehole
River]




                          OLD FAITHFUL GEYSER


Most famous of all geysers is Old Faithful. It is everything you would
expect to see in a geyser. Old Faithful has the showman's touch, as
well. With a rumbling fanfare and roll of drums beneath the thin shell
of the earth, Old Faithful goes into action. Then a hissing, boiling
pillar of water spurts into the air. Rapidly it gains momentum until it
reaches a height of 140 feet or more.

For four minutes it continues to play, and then gradually dies away.
Tiny wisps of steam linger a moment, and then disappear. Old Faithful
puts on its show within a few minutes of a specified time. The average
interval between eruptions is 65 minutes.

It is staggering to conceive just how much water Old Faithful hurls
skyward during each of its extraordinary performances. It has been
estimated, however, that in a single day this geyser discharges
approximately 250,000 gallons of water.

To see Old Faithful at night is, perhaps, the most wondrous sight of
all. A giant searchlight is thrown upon its towering plume, and the
steaming column of water, thus caught in the vivid, white light,
presents a spectacle which becomes an everlasting memory of your trip to
Yellowstone.

[Illustration: Old Faithful reaches for the clouds]


                             Other Geysers

Numerous other geysers equal or excel Old Faithful in volume or height,
but most lack its regularity. The Giant Geyser exceeds all others in the
amount of water expelled. Its jet of steaming water sometimes reaches
250 feet, and continues for an entire hour, but it gives no advance
notice of when it will burst forth.

[Illustration: Visitors examine the weird crater of Comet Geyser]

Other colorful geysers include the Beehive, Riverside, Grotto, Castle
and the Sawmill. Their descriptive names are derived from their
fantastic and unusual formations. For sheer individual splendor, the
Grand, Giantess and Fountain Geysers are noteworthy.


                           Pools and Springs

When you gaze into Firehole Lake jets of hot gas can readily be seen.
Since they look like flame, it is easy to understand why the early
trappers called this lake "Firehole."

There are other odd sights in the basins. Fountain Paint Pot looks like
a pot of boiling paint, but it is merely colored clay. Morning Glory
Pool is so named because of its flower-like cone. Black Sand Pool is a
hot spring. Sapphire Springs is accurately named. It is as blue as the
gem itself.


                         The Continental Divide

After leaving Old Faithful you will soon come to Kepler Cascade. Here a
whole series of captivating waterfalls descend about 150 feet, the magic
waters singing as they fall.

Continuing on toward Yellowstone Lake--your next stop--you cross the
Continental Divide. The Divide crosses the southwest corner of the Park.
This immense watershed was created by the tablelands of the Rocky
Mountains from which the drainage is easterly or westerly. Eventually
the flow on one slope reaches the Atlantic Ocean, and the flow on the
other slope finds its way to the Pacific Ocean.

                            YELLOWSTONE LAKE


[Illustration: Speedboat party on Yellowstone Lake]

Yellowstone Lake covers approximately 139 square miles. Its shore line
is 100 miles long. One of the largest mountain lakes in the world, it is
a mile and a half above sea level. The blue of its waters against the
surrounding snow-capped mountains makes it one of nature's grandest
pictures.

[Illustration: Fishing on Yellowstone Lake]

Countless visitors spend as much time as possible at the Lake. After the
first visit this can be readily understood. It is ideal for camping and
fishing, and the stimulating air at this altitude is invigorating and
delightfully refreshing.

You may take a pleasant boat trip and explore its distant shores or, if
you wish, you may engage a motor- or rowboat, at a nominal rate, for a
pleasure cruise or to try your luck at angling. Boat trips to Stevenson
Island feature fishing, and fish-fries on the Island.

[Illustration: Yellowstone Lake, a mighty inland sea]




                    GRAND CANYON OF THE YELLOWSTONE


The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, as seen from either Artist Point or
Inspiration Point, is one of the truly great wonders of the West. It is
hard to conceive such breath-taking beauty. Once you have gazed into its
jagged depths, alive with color, you will never forget it, nor would you
if you could.

Perhaps you stand on the rim, and gaze down into a seemingly bottomless
void. Eagles and fish-hawks quite likely will be circling far below. The
sides of the ragged pit will be painted with myriads of shifting,
changing, vivid colors, with shades of yellow predominating. In the
bright sunlight the canyon flames in glory. No sound comes from the
echoless, yawning gulf at the bottom.

Grand Canyon--richly named! From Artist Point it is nearly 1,600 feet to
the opposite side. There is a sheer drop of nearly 800 feet below the
platform on which you stand. Down there lies the green, serpentine
Yellowstone River. Your gaze follows the curve of the canyon to where,
in the distance, may be seen the silvery sheet of the Lower Falls
plummeting downward in a billowy cloud of misty spray.

You can also see the Canyon from other angles and obtain a fuller
realization of its majestic beauty. This may be done at Point Lookout,
or farther up, at the Grand View.

Time stands still at this mighty chasm. However long you stare in silent
wonder, it seems like but a fleeting moment.


                       The Upper and Lower Falls

As the Yellowstone River flows from Yellowstone Lake toward the Missouri
River and the Gulf of Mexico, it leisurely twists and winds through the
Park until, about fifteen miles from its source, the river is converged
to a width of less than fifty feet. Through foaming cataracts it
suddenly rushes forward to hurtle down 112 feet in a graceful fall known
as the Upper Falls of the Yellowstone. The velocity of flow is so great
at the crest that the water pours over the lip of the canyon in a
graceful arc.

On approaching the Grand Canyon, a good view of the Upper Falls may be
had from an observation point about one quarter mile below Chittenden
Bridge.

A short distance beyond the Upper Falls the swift, surging torrent again
comes to a mighty precipice, this time with a drop of 308 feet--the
famous Lower Falls. Plunging over, it leaps downward with a thunderous
roar, and disappears in a cloud of spray, presenting an unforgettable
picture. A third of the fall is hidden behind this vast cloud of spray
which conceals the mad play of the waters beneath.

[Illustration: Cascades of Yellowstone River]

[Illustration: The thundering Lower Falls of the Yellowstone]

Not far from Grand Canyon Hotel is a stairway leading to the top of the
Lower Falls. It may also be viewed from the lower end of Uncle Tom's
Trail which goes to the bottom of the Canyon. Looking upward at the
roaring cataract from that point, you are awed by its wild and
unharnessed power. Sunlight gives additional charm to the scene by
forming multi-colored rainbows in the filmy clouds of ascending spray.


                              Tower Falls

[Illustration: Graceful Tower Falls]

Leaving Grand Canyon, which you do reluctantly, your route is north to
Mammoth Hot Springs. Along the way many interesting sights are seen.
About midway between Canyon and Mammoth you see Tower Falls, one of the
most graceful waterfalls in the world. Plunging 132 feet into a
cavernous basin, rimmed with stately evergreens, the Fall gets its name
from the tower-like spires of rock that guard the river's approach to
the precipice.


                        Mammoth Hot Springs Area

From Tower Falls travelers follow the road to Mammoth Hot Springs, site
of the Park administration buildings.

Along the sides of the hill, from which the natural springs well, are a
group of steps or terraces over which flow the steaming waters of hot
springs, laden with minerals. Each descending step has been tinted by
the algae (plant life), living in the hot water, in a thousand tones. So
vivid are these colors that they appear to vibrate and glow in the
sunlight. Some of the older springs have now dried up, but about twenty
are still active.


                       More Geysers--Norris Basin

Upon leaving Mammoth Hot Springs, on the way back to West Yellowstone,
you come upon Norris Geyser Basin. Its geysers spout at frequent
intervals and its steam vents noisily erupt great volumes of vapor.
Constant, Minute Man and Whirligig are some of the geysers. Emerald,
Opal, Iris and Congress are a few of the pools.

[Illustration: Jewel-like Emerald Pool]

Enchanting Gibbon Falls will add another lingering memory of your trip
through Norris Geyser Basin.




                         YELLOWSTONE WILD LIFE


[Illustration: Moose]

[Illustration: Pronghorn]

[Illustration: Mountain Sheep]

[Illustration: Deer]

_Bears_ Yellowstone has long been renowned as a refuge for wild animals.
While the visitor may not see many animals from the highway, the silent
watcher on the trails will not be disappointed.

The famous Yellowstone brown and black bears are the ones most
frequently seen. The less-sociable grizzlies are seldom seen.

Park regulations forbid feeding, touching or teasing the bears. Observe
them _only_ from a safe distance.


                             Other Animals

Tramping a forest trail your footsteps may disturb a deer that bounds
away at your approach. In some of the grassy valleys of Yellowstone are
immense herds of elk. Bands of bighorn sheep scale the rocky heights
with amazing agility.

Buffalo roam the eastern section of the Park, away from the main roads.
Quite likely you will catch glimpses of other animals--antelope, moose,
coyote, beaver, porcupine, squirrel and mink, some of which are pictured
here.

More than 200 species of birds spend their summers in the Park. Eagles
may be seen among the crags. Wild ducks and geese are abundant. Many
large, white swans and pelicans lend charm to Yellowstone Lake.

                          Grasshopper Glacier

Just outside the northeast corner of the Park is a huge glacier on the
surface of which are the broken remains of millions of grasshoppers,
preserved through the centuries. Geologists tell us they were trapped
here while crossing the mountains in a summer snow storm.

[Illustration: Herd of elk on the alert]


                                Fishing

Yellowstone is a fisherman's dream come true. Nearly all the streams and
lakes contain one or more species of trout. Whitefish and grayling may
also be caught. Fishing equipment is obtainable in the Park. No license
required.

[Illustration: Yellowstone--a fisherman's paradise]


                       Other Forms of Recreation

Yellowstone offers many forms of healthful recreation. Hiking is
popular. Safe horseback trails beckon. Saddle horses and guides are
available at Mammoth Hot Springs, Old Faithful and Grand Canyon.
Swimming is enjoyed at Old Faithful and Mammoth, where pools, fed by
natural warm waters, are maintained. Suits and towels may be rented.


                             Entertainment

Every minute of the day is pleasant at Yellowstone and the evening
hours, too, are filled with fun. Impromptu entertainments, lectures,
music for dancing and for listening round out the day.

[Illustration: There's after-dinner entertainment as well]

                       GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK


[Illustration: Church of the Transfiguration, Jackson Hole]

[Illustration: John Colter in Jackson's Hole]

Grand Teton National Park became known to white men in 1807-8 when John
Colter crossed the range on the memorable trip which resulted in his
discovery of Yellowstone. The northern extremity of the Park lies about
11 miles south of Yellowstone's southern boundary.

Grand Teton National Park contains about 96,000 acres, and is penetrated
by 90 miles of good trails. Besides its pinnacled peaks and majestic
canyons, Grand Teton includes five large lakes and dozens of smaller
bodies of water; glaciers, snowfields and a green forest empire of pine,
fir and spruce. Much of the Park is above timberline.

The great array of sharp, ragged peaks, which are called the "Teton
Range", present some of the grandest mountain scenery in the world.
Southwest of Jenny Lake is a cluster of steepled rock, the dominating
figure being Grand Teton, the famous mountain after which the Park is
named. The towering Grand Teton rises 13,766 feet, 7000 feet above the
floor of the valley.

Grand Teton National Park has a rich history. This fertile, green valley
and lake region is the historic "Jackson Hole" of pioneer days
notoriety, when it was famous as a hideout for outlaws. A large part of
it is now included in Jackson Hole National Monument.

The colorful title "Jackson Hole" dates back to 1829 when Capt. Wm.
Sublette named it for a fellow trapper, David E. Jackson.

By 1845 the romantic trapper of the "Fur Era" vanished from the Rockies,
and during the next four decades the valleys near the Tetons were
virtually deserted, except for wandering tribes of Indians who
occasionally drifted in. Later government expeditions making surveys of
the region named many of the Park's natural beauties--Leigh, Jenny,
Taggart, Bradley and Phelps Lakes, and Mount St. John--names which remain
today.

[Illustration: Car in Jackson's Hole]

[Illustration: Jackson Lake and Majestic Mt. Moran]

The Indian and the outlaw have vanished from this valley but it still
retains a flavor of the thrilling Wild West days. The colorful cowboy on
spirited pony still rides the range, singing to the cattle, but now he
occasionally climbs into the ranch's shiny station wagon and goes over
the pass to Victor to meet and bring incoming guests to the ranch, for
here are located some of the outstanding "dude ranches" of the West.

For years Jackson Hole has been famous for its big game. In this
classification the moose is the most common in the summer. In winter it
is the home of the world's largest herd of Wapiti, or American elk.
Other wild animals which inhabit the region include bear, mule-deer,
elk, Rocky Mountain sheep, beaver, marten, mink, weasel and coyote. Over
100 species of birds have been identified. A unique variety of wild
flowers and plants grow profusely in the Tetons. The flowering period
begins in the Park as soon as the ridges and flats are free of snow in
May and continues until about the middle of August.

Grand Teton National Park is most conveniently reached from Victor,
Idaho, on the Union Pacific Railroad. From Victor motor buses climb the
Forest Service highway to the top of Teton Pass. This lofty vantage
point offers a sublime view of the surrounding domain.




                                 LODGES


[Illustration: Looking across Jackson Hole to the Tetons]

Near the town of Moran, Wyoming, is Teton Lodge, and a short distance
farther north is Jackson Lake Lodge. Overlooking lovely Jackson Lake,
both command marvelous views of the sweeping Teton Range.

The central lodges and cabins are built of native logs. They are
equipped with hot and cold running water and are thoroughly comfortable.
Trips may be made in all directions from the lodges. Saddle horses,
motorboats, rowboats and automobiles may be hired at reasonable rates.

Modern campgrounds for pack trip parties are also available at Jenny and
String Lakes. These camps are supplied with running water, sanitary
facilities and cooking grates.

[Illustration: All set to hit the trail]




                              DUDE RANCHES


[Illustration: Dudes get a lesson in saddling-up]

While many of the ranches in the Jackson Hole country are operating
cattle ranches, they do accept a few guests during the summer months.
All have attractive, comfortable accommodations for those who wish to
indulge in horseback riding, fishing, mountain-climbing, hiking and the
regular activities of ranch life. Dude ranch life offers rugged outdoor
exercise, or pleasant relaxation. Certainly no more ideal spot can be
found for such a vacation than in this vicinity. Most of the ranches are
located in settings of natural beauty, with mountains, lakes and streams
near by. The hospitality of western ranch folk is warm and genuine.

For more complete information about dude ranches in the Union Pacific
West, including this area, inquire at any Union Pacific office listed on
page 40 of this book for a copy of Union Pacific's book "Dude Ranches
Out West".

             TICKETS TO YELLOWSTONE PARK VIA UNION PACIFIC


Union Pacific serves West Yellowstone, Montana, directly on the Park's
western boundary, and during the Park season operates through sleeping
cars from the East direct to West Yellowstone.

During the Park season, also, round trip tickets are sold at nearly all
stations in the United States and Canada to West Yellowstone, Montana,
or to Victor, Idaho; or, going to West Yellowstone and returning from
Victor, or the reverse.

From any place in the United States tickets may be routed so passengers
enter the Park at West Yellowstone and depart from Victor, Idaho,
Gardiner, Gallatin or Red Lodge, Mont., or Cody, Wyo.--other gateways to
the Park.

Traveling Union Pacific to West Yellowstone from the East one can
include stopovers at Denver, Ogden and Salt Lake City.

                          GENERAL INFORMATION


NATIONAL PARK SERVICE--The National Park Service, U. S. Department of the
Interior, has full jurisdiction over Yellowstone National Park and is
represented by a resident Superintendent, whose headquarters are at
Mammoth Hot Springs. The National Park Service, of which The Honorable
Newton B. Drury is Director, has jurisdiction over all national parks.

WHAT TO WEAR--Warm clothing should be worn, and one should be prepared
for the sudden changes of temperature common at an altitude of 7,500
feet. Visitors should have medium weight overcoats, jackets,
"windbreakers" or sweaters. Stout outing shoes are best suited for
walking about the geyser formations and terraces, and for mountain use.
Women's ordinary street shoes are not well adapted for these walks.
Tinted glasses, serviceable gloves and a pair of field or opera glasses
will be found useful.

BAGGAGE--The Yellowstone Park Company-Yellowstone Park Lines, Inc., and
the Teton Transportation Company will carry free, two pieces of hand
baggage for each person, not exceeding 60 lbs. in total weight.
Additional pieces of hand baggage, for complete tour of park--$1.00 each,
charged by Yellowstone Park Lines, Inc. and by Teton Transportation Co.
There is no arrangement for carrying trunks into the Parks.

CHURCH SERVICES--The chapel in Yellowstone National Park is located at
Mammoth Hot Springs. Protestant and Catholic services are held every
Sunday in the chapel and at other points in the Park, and are bulletined
in hotels.

BATH HOUSES--Natural hot-water bathing pools are maintained at Old
Faithful and Mammoth Hot Springs. Suit and towel may be rented at a
small charge.

MEDICAL FACILITIES--Physicians and a surgeon of long experience have
headquarters at Mammoth Hot Springs and are available for service at any
place in the Park. Also at Mammoth Hot Springs is a well-equipped
hospital with skilled personnel. Trained nurses are also stationed in
each hotel. Rates are the same as prevail in cities near the Park.

SADDLE HORSE TRIPS AND GUIDES--Saddle horses and competent guides are
available at the Yellowstone Park hotels and Jackson Lake Lodge at
reasonable rates approved by the National Park Service. Horseback trips
afford opportunities to get far away from roads and beaten paths into
the remoter scenic regions and to see many of the more timid wild
animals that inhabit the Park. The Dude Ranches in Jackson Hole offer
attractive outings.

[Illustration: Ranger-naturalists present educational evening lectures]

MAIL, TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE--The main post office in the Park is
Yellowstone Park, Wyo., and is located at Mammoth Hot Springs. Guests
stopping at hotels should have their mail addressed to Old Faithful
Store, to Canyon Hotel or to Mammoth Hotel, Yellowstone Park, Wyo.,
depending at which place the addressee will be when the mail is
received. Mail for travelers in Teton Park should be addressed care of
Jackson Lake Lodge, Moran, Wyo. Telegraph and telephone service between
all hotels; telegraph to all parts of the world; telephone connections
throughout the United States. Address your message to the hotel where
addressee will be. If the person is at some point other than that of
receipt, delivery of message entails a forwarding charge. Money
transfers at all hotels in the Park.

SPECIAL AUTOMOBILE SERVICE--The Yellowstone Park Company operates a few
sedans for those desiring this special service at additional cost.
Advance reservations must be made.

GUIDE AND LECTURE SERVICE--The National Park Service has established a
nature guide service at Mammoth Hot Springs, Old Faithful, Lake and
Canyon, where guides and lecturers are maintained on the naturalist
force to explain and interpret Park features to the public. Trips are
made afield, and are so arranged as to be available to everybody. This
service is free, as are the evening lectures on the history, geology,
flora and fauna.

At Mammoth Hot Springs is a combined museum and information office near
the administration headquarters and post office. There are interesting
museums also at Madison Junction, Old Faithful, Fishing Bridge and
Norris.

to Yellowstone Park or to any of the other places reached by the Union
Pacific R.R.




                           FOR THE CAMERA FAN


[Illustration: For the Camera Fan]

Yellowstone has everything for the camera addict but the park presents
some subjects rather difficult to capture satisfactorily.

In either color or black and white the geysers are best photographed
with quartering or slightly back light. Use panchromatic film and a
fairly strong yellow filter or even a light red filter.

Color shots of Old Faithful are best made very early in the morning or
late in the afternoon. If you are lucky enough to catch a color shot of
an eruption against a sunset sky you will have a prize.

Hot pools demand considerable exposure to reproduce the color in the
depths of the pool. Do not waste time on hot pools if the day is cool
and steam obscures the subject. On such days the geysers give their best
photographic eruptions.

In shooting geysers use a fast speed. Expose for the white and let the
rest of the picture fall into a low key.

In using an exposure meter in Yellowstone, be careful to see that bright
areas in the foreground do not give a false reading.

Your questions regarding either still or moving picture photography in
Yellowstone will be answered fully if you will address Manager,
Photographic Department, Union Pacific RR, Union Pacific Bldg., 1416
Dodge Street, Omaha 2, Nebr.


HAYNES PICTURE SHOPS--Pictures, albums, guide books, postcards, camera
supplies and printing and developing service may be had at Haynes
Picture Shops located in the hotels and lodges and elsewhere in the
Park.




                   UNION PACIFIC ยท FIRST IN THE WEST


First to link East with West, Union Pacific is still first in furnishing
fast, comfortable, dependable, low-cost transportation. During the
summer season through sleeping cars operate from Chicago and Salt Lake
City to West Yellowstone, making convenient connections, at Ashton,
Idaho, for Victor, Idaho, for those desiring to visit Grand Teton
National Park only, or in combination with a trip to Yellowstone. For a
completely satisfying trip to any of the Western Wonderlands we suggest
you _Be Specific--Say "Union Pacific"_.

Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.

Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
works.

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
with anyone.  For forty years, he produced and distributed Project
Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:

     www.gutenberg.org

This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
