Don't Let Yellowstone's Beauty Fool You into Thinking it's Safe
Ойын-сауық
While Yellowstone has a reputation for beauty and leisure, it can also be a dangerous place. One man, Truman Everts, discovered this firsthand in 1870 when he became lost there for 37 days.
From the Series: Aerial America: Yellowstone

I grew up in Montana and remember hearing stories about people failing through the crust near the geysers and dying. I went to Montana State University in Bozeman which is 90 miles from the park. The radio station had a theme song for foolish tourists who thought bison were tame and got chased or gored.
I was thinking this will be a mini documentary about Yellowstone. Instead it turned out to be the story of some poor bloke.
So much misfortune.. at some point you just have to ask yourself "am I an idiot?"

Yeah, but he lived. Then went on to reproduce perhaps?

You're mean. It's not like he went out with the intention of getting lost. He had a party, they got separated. It's happened to more experienced people and in less remote areas. Many people don't come back, either. The fact that he did survive after 37 days in what was even more remote terrain than now with less technology is a credit to this man's spirit, and I'm sure if you had the same misfortunes the last thing you'd want is to be judged so harshly by someone that couldn't possibly understand your experience.

Well even the narrator mentions that he was, "anything but a mountain man." Now I'm actually quite impressed by his will to survive, which despite my crack about him reproducing, was more the point I was trying to make. That doesn't mean he wasn't a moron or at least ill prepared for going off out into the wilderness like that.

Went in thinking Yellowstone was dangerous, only to find out Everts was the real danger...
The man lost everything and managed to survive. The place is really not safe.
How do you lose both of your knives AND start a forest fire?
I’ve been to Yellowstone national park and it’s nice
Better book title would have been *Confessions of a Total Numbnut.*

Nature’s beauty is just breathtaking and magnificent
Imagine, in the 19th century, to get lost without supply and gear without a map because the place isn't a known place and to have such misfortunes in a small period of time: it's just incredible he survived so many times in nature without serious injuries.

Yeah, wilderness survival is one example of "don't bring a gun to a knife 'fight'"! You CAN'T lose your knife!... you simply can't. For sure, a gun will come in handy for hunting and self defense from predator animals. But a cutting implement is way more crucial. You can use it to process firewood, make a bow and arrows, strike a piece of flint to start a fire, make a spear, make a shelter, the list goes and on, AND you can still use it as a weapon! You must keep your knife at all times, at all costs, while in the wilderness!
Amazing Visuals!

One of the thrills of wilderness travel is that subconscious notion that you might die. Nonetheless, I toss that notion aside and willingly go live like a barbarian a few days a year....but I do so with a healthy respect for the environment I am traveling in. As the old saying goes...what doesn't kill you makes you stronger:-).

The Yellowstone supervolcano has been around for at least 16 million years, 14 million of those were not actually in what is now Yellowstone National Park.
