One of the greatest American landmarks is Mount Rushmore, located in the Black Hills of South Dakota. From 1927 to 1941, John Gutzon de la Mothe Borglum carved the four heads of the American presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln into the rock.

In northwestern Wyoming lies Yellowstone National Park. It is the oldest national park on Earth. It was placed under nature protection as early as 1872. With an area of 8,987 km², it is also one of the largest national parks. It received its name from the yellow rock found in the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Since 1978, it has also been part of the UNESCO World Natural Heritage. The image shows the travertine terraces of Mammoth Hot Springs, which can be explored via wooden boardwalks. We did this on our USA trip on July 18, 2006.

Im nordwestlichen Wyoming liegt der Yellowstone Nationalpark. Es handelt sich hierbei um den ältesten Nationalpark der Erde. Er wurde bereits im Jahr 1872 unter Naturschutz gestellt. Mit einer Fläche von 8987 m² gehört er auch zu den größten Nationalparks. Seinen Namen erhielt er durch das gelbe Gestein welches man im Grand Canyon des Yellowstone vorfinden kann. Seit den Jahre 1978 gehört er auch zum UNESCO Weltnaturerbe. In den Tälern des Yellowstone Parkes trifft man immer wieder auf Bisonherden, die in aller Ruhe auf den großen Wiesen weiden. Die Aufnahme entstand am 18. Juli 2006 bei unserer Rundreise durch die USA.

In the northwest of the US state of Colorado lies Rocky Mountain National Park. In 1859, Joel Estes and his son Milton first came to the area (to a large valley) 20 miles north of Lyons. A year later, they returned with their families to the region and began to establish a settlement. Around 1909, several conservationists advocated for this area to become a national park, which was realized in 1915 as the tenth national park of the USA. One main reason for this is that one-third of the park lies above the tree line (tundra). Just above the Alpine Visitor Center is this sign indicating an elevation of 12,005 feet (3,658 meters). During our stop at the Alpine Visitor Center on July 15, 2006, we made sure to take the short hiking trail to the summit. However, the highest point we reached that day was just past the Alpine Visitor Center, when we traveled by bus over 12,183 feet (3,718 meters).

In the south of the US state of Utah lies one of the most impressive canyons on this earth: the Bryce Canyon. Named after the settler Ebenezer Bryce, who came to the Paria Valley in 1875 to engage in the timber industry. His neighbors called the canyon behind his house Bryce's Canyon. Thousands of sandstone formations shaped by erosion, called hoodoos, seem to grow out of the earth and create a breathtaking view of this legendary canyon. On September 10, 2002, during our USA tour from and to San Francisco in California, we visited Bryce Canyon in southern Utah. The picture shows the  Bryce Amphitheater  photographed from Bryce Point.

In the southern part of the US state of Utah lies one of the most impressive canyons on Earth: the Bryce Canyon. Named after the settler Ebenezer Bryce, who came to the Paria Valley in 1875 to engage in the timber industry. His neighbors called the canyon behind his house Bryce's Canyon. Thousands of sandstone formations shaped by erosion, called hoodoos, seem to grow out of the ground and create a breathtaking view of this legendary canyon. On July 21, 2006, during our USA trip from Denver, Colorado to Los Angeles, California, we visited Bryce Canyon. Shortly before, a rain shower passed over the canyon, causing the colors of the sandstone to shine in a beautiful, vibrant red-orange. The photo was taken during a short walk along the Rim Trail between Inspiration Point and Sunset Point.
