Oldest, largest, and one of our most beautiful vacation lands is Yellowstone National Park. Antelope feed peacefully on grassy slopes. Woof woof, a black bear! But don't worry; he's friendly; he won't bother you.

For many years, Old Faithful has played with average regularity every 65 minutes. It's a majestic, awe-inspiring sight, reaching up with a plume of white steam that towers above everything and seems to dominate the world. Four-fifths of Yellowstone is thick with forest, but you can see waterfalls twice as high as Niagara Falls. You'll tingle with excitement as the water plunges down, down, in its tireless journey to the sea.

If you want to see grizzly bears, you come here to the bear feeding ground. An armed ranger is on guard, and you'll be perfectly safe. Herds of buffalo live in these mountains, a symbol of our vanished frontier. The early pioneers pushed their way laboriously across this country, but it's only in our great national parks that we've preserved unchanged the really wild things and the immense wilderness they [Music] knew.
