Yellowstone National Park, WY was conceived and founded as a monument that is preserved in the spirit of American heritage, a gift from the past to the future, and a testament to the wealth of America’s environmental riches. Spending Independence Day in the park does not hold true to any of the traditional ways to celebrate the holiday, as there are no parades or special music, and fireworks are banned. However, spending the Fourth of July in Yellowstone celebrates the birth of the United States by enjoying some of the best natural attractions the country has to offer, from Old Faithful to the Morning Glory pool to Yellowstone’s Grand Canyon to the wild buffalo that roam the lands.
