Yellowstone; the Wild Side is a story of Yellowstone National Park where a pageantry of rugged characters interacting with each other have created legends repeated around evening campfires through countless years. Some people have hollered with pure joy of beholding such splendid scenery and above all there is the spiritual presence that for each visitor today can emblazon a memory never to be forgotten. Yellowstone history is an incredible mixture of Native American lore, white settlement and National Park formation (political). Of course, Native Americans were in North America long before white settlers. Where they here when the earthquake rumbled across Wyoming, forming the yellowstone caldera? The white settlers, after all, were the newcomers. The formation of the National Parks was the white man's attempt at preserving a natural phenomenon and, in the process, subsuming the Native American's traditional holy site into a place with no acknowledgment of the Native Americans or their sense of 'place'; for they'd also had villages on parts of the park area.
