bozeman predates yellowstone. yellowstone being 1872. bozeman, 1860 for bozeman was an agricultural community rather than so many of montana's communities, which were mining and near it to the west, sort of near it was virginia city. so montana's history is all bound up in mining and those miners who jumped across from idaho. so in earlier, california, 1849, in the 1850s, jumped across into montana and those miners sprd out looking for the gulch is as they call them. and so they looked in yellowstone, but they didn't really make a gold strike. and that was fortunate for yellowstone. it it probably saved the national park. the fact that there wasn't a gold strike or we didn't have a gold strike there, instead of the national park. so bozeman very early became an outfitting point for yellowstone, as did virginia city. and i think that's the that's the key connection, is that those two towns as early as 1880 were in a kind of a competition. and virginia city quickly lost that battle of being an outfitting point. they were just too far away.

to set off for yellowstone. they followed the river down to where it meets the gardener, but they really did only take horses and meals with them because they knew from reports that they weren't going to be able to get any wagons through any of the narrow canyons into yellowstone. so they really jumped off on july 20th, 1871 and spent a couple of months exploring the park here is a map you can see them at the very top of the map kind of coming down. along the yellowstone river making a diversion up the gardener a little ways where they saw for the first time the white what they called the white mountain, which we now call mammoth hot springs and langford's team has had not discovered this particular feature of yellowstone's grant geothermal basins and so hayden really considered that this was an iconic moment in his survey. he emphasized it a lot in all of his written reports because he wanted to claim it kind of as his own discovery, even though right at the base along the gardener river. they actually ran into

yellowstone. we fell in love with the region early and had relatives in montana, which added to it. very early experience. and when i was 16 and my brother 14, we vacationed here and we saw the employees and one of them invited us to a dance and that sort of did it. we were too young for the dance, but we got in and saw all the sun they were having and as soon as we both hit 18 we applied and got jobs with the concessioner in yellowstone. and i should correct that the jobs of the concessioners actually didn't come until a little bit later. our father, being a government employee, knew the route to the park service, we didn't have to do concessioner. and both of us were on the road crew and garbage truck in yellowstone very early and did that for a couple of years and decided, well, the work is not what i want to be doing and i went to the concessioner with an eye toward the parties and here i am 20 years old and interested in the social life and that kind of stuff and i got hired as a bus tour gui

he's all the yellowstone expedition into the national park that yellowstone became.hehe was wrong about that. he didn't anticipate that another figure of the period would be workingng against him n the region. this is just, t sorry i should have gone to the slide. this is two examples of the way he was using advertising in newspapers to gin up some enthusiasm for the northern norn pacific in the 1871. the man standing in his way was the chief born in the 1830s along the missouri river to a family of war chiefs and community leaders. a sitting bull was a member of the lakota who were themselves one part of the seven council flyers known at the time as the sioux. he established himself not only against the traditional enemies but also fights against u.s. soldiers. he began to appear in u.s. official documents in the late 1860s as indian agency and army officers and civil officials were beginning to take note of his leadership and his growing power. during this period he consistently asserted the rights to their homeland along the valley and sovereignty of the people. t

not in yellowstone. this remained a primitive place that the army took care of for another 25 years after most towns had autos. re in most plac until 1960y yellowstone was a horse and buggy place. one question i get which i never get answered is what is the future hold for yellowstone? he's all bound up in that and so is livingston. so are all the surrounding what we call the gateway towns and the regional states that include montana, wyoming and idaho, all three, and they are all part of that scene in 2019 everyone wants to live here. we are suddenly on everybody's list, top 20 or top ten, even worse, top five places to live and it's understandable because yellowstone national park's the centerpieceiv and international airport, the university. plus the best hiking, hunting, fishing, world-class skiing, all those things that i started to say money can buy or that free canon give you. what it has done is it has ramped up the cost of housing. so there's a kind of sadness to yellowstone's future is it going

i mean, there are, last time i saw was 27 different native nations have an interest in yellowstone.from way back in the carter administration one thingr hardware first to work on native american issues was if you know one indian tribe, you know one indian tribe. dating drives to agree on something like what do we do with yellowstone if we got back, it would be a very daunting kind of task. progress has been made at a very local level and progress is being made. most of these laws that have passed regarding specific areas of public land, many of them have involved the transfer of some land back to the local native nations where it is negotiated. congress can do it but it's a political process which means it has to be negotiated, but given example, in the 1990s when i was at the interdepartment, the tribes at the northwestern montana wanted to take over management of what was called the national bison the national bison range which had been acquired from these tribes back in 1905 i think it was, for money, though some dispute about whether it was a price that was. and a bit acquired f

so you have the wildest lands, the yellowstone national parks at one end, where you don't need so muchut you can also rewild your garden, your window box, your roadside verges. all of us have a part to play in restoring nature across the landscape, and we have to connect, too. you've just written a new book, a sort of practical guide to rewilding. it's upset some people because your message is that everybody sort of has a responsibility to engage in this notion of rewilding, of sort of rebuilding ecosystems. and some who garden, who love gardening, who think that the human intervention in their little green space is what makes it beautiful, have said that your notion of letting it all go wild runs contrary to everything that the spirit of gardening represents. what's your message to them? well, i would say that we need to really understand how ecosystems work. we really need to put nature at the forefront of our minds, even when we're gardening. so, if you understand how a system works, if you look at the wider countryside and you see how dysfunctional and unstable and at risk it is fr

yellowstone is a great example. anticipating a massive flood in yellowstone last year, and an entire road got washed out. that is the northern access road for visitors to go through montana into the park. we cannot get ahead of some of these tragic events that are happening because climate change is coming at us right now. hurricanes, storm surges. these are all happening in parks. there are some things we can do to get ahead of this, and the reflation -- inflation reduction act will help with those but there are consequences to climate change. the park service needs to do vulnerability studies to figure out what areas of the park are most vulnerable to flooding and storm surges and so forth and figure out, is there a way to get ahead of it, infrastructure rise, and put better infrastructure in place to address some of these impacts that are coming at us? host: four viewers, you can learn more abo national parks if you go to the national park conservation association's website, npca.org. you can follow them @npca. t

the new parks like yellowstone and yosemite had cousin scattered across the west in the form of indian reservations. reservations were generallyon regarded as economically marginal or next to worthless in the interior department. as aou result, indian land was obvious candidates for inclusion in the parks because they were regarded as unproductive and already under the hand of federal trusteeship. the badlands of south dakota were themselves part of the greatow reservation established four years before yellowstone national park was created. in 1889 a government commission strong-armed into selling 9 million acres of theirir land including the badlands. at which point they became part of the public domain. in 1922, the first congressional bill was introduced to create an entity called wonderland national park in the western regions of south dakota. not many settlers may have wanted to live in the badlands anymore, butom someone was bettg that people would want to come and marvel at their mysterious beauty. a paradoxa about the national park service is worth noting here. it is a conserva

seeing cows in yosemite or in yellowstone or of the other sort of big national iconic.again becomes a self-replicating cycle where people question the original residents of this park and why they're still in place. they don't know the story of how they got there. and so then sort of advocate for them to be moved out. and there's been a number of lawsuits in recent years trying to more actively some of the the last remaining out of the park. so one of the things i want you to you know, this closing here with this image of the of pastoral landscape at point raise is remembering that all landscapes have histories and even places that we think of as natural landscapes have histories that is quite invisible to us as. a as a viewer, these places were shaped by other people's lives, whether that be native americans. more recent settlers, like the ranchers at point raise. and i think there's a need to have, if not a formal recognition of their relationship with the landscape, at least a respect for the the ways in which their work has literally made these places. the reason tha
