Livingston Montana Ranch and Yellowstone

Some footage from our first trip to Montana. We'd spent time on a beautiful ranch and visited Yellow Stone National Park in 2015. it blew our minds! Livingston is located in south-central Montana, and it's the seat of Park County. It's situated along the Yellowstone River and lies to the north of Yellowstone National Park. Livingston started as a railroad town. In the late 19th century, the Northern Pacific Railway chose Livingston as a key hub, leading to its growth. Due to its railway connection, the town became the original gateway to Yellowstone National Park. Throughout the 20th century, Livingston evolved and became a notable location for artists, writers, and celebrities looking for an escape. The Livingston we visited retains its charm as a quintessential Western town, and its proximity to the Paradise Valley and Yellowstone National Park makes it a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Yellowstone was established as the first national park in the U.S. (and the world) in 1872. President Ulysses S. Grant signed the Yellowstone National Park Protection Act into law on March 1, 1872. Yellowstone covers approximately 2.2 million acres and spans three states: Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho, with the majority of the park in Wyoming. The park is known for its geothermal features, including the iconic Old Faithful geyser (though we didn't see it go off). Yellowstone is home to a vast array of wildlife, including grizzly bears, wolves, elk, and bison. A significant aspect of the park's geology is the Yellowstone Caldera, a super-volcano that has erupted several times over the last two million years. The heat from this volcanic system powers the park's geysers, hot springs, and other geothermal features. Native American groups lived and traveled through the Yellowstone region for over 11,000 years before European and American expeditions began exploring the area. The park faced challenges in its early years from poaching, deforestation, and unregulated hunting. The U.S. Army was even called in to manage and protect the park until the National Park Service was established in 1916. Since its establishment, Yellowstone has been a site of scientific research, with studies on wildlife conservation, geothermal phenomena, and ecology. Yellowstone has had a profound impact on the concept of public land conservation and the national park idea, inspiring the establishment of national parks across the U.S. and around the world.
