Fires, Yellowstone National Park: 3 reviews and 3 photos
Since the great fires of 1988, the park has increased the number of animals living in it's confines. The fires opened the forest, allowed for new growth, created more 'edges', where wildlife can live and diversity can florish. The easiest place to see it is along the central road from Norris Geyser Basin to Canyon Village.
These pictures are 10years after the fire and while the standing pines still show where the forest stood, the lush grass and open meadows are signs of a healthy ecosystem.
