      So very true..... I used to be a seasonal park ranger back in the mid to late 80's. A majority of our calls were usually animal / human interactions, and primarily it was initiated by visitors. Like the guy who tried to put his 6 year old on a bison for a photo opportunity. Or several tourists trying to feed moose. Or even exiting the walkway to get a closer look at a thermal pool... Or the couple who " accidentally" too close to some grizzly cubs to pet them.....

      Yes it is.
      Upheaval lifts the crust upward from the bottom. Water erodes the uplifted crust so the uplift is downlowered from the top. Water washes it into the oceans. The oceans floors gather crust material and get heavier and pushing the ocean floors downward. When an ocean crust meats a landmass crust the ocean crust is what gets subducted. When two oceans crust meets the heavier ocean crust gets subducted. The more crust that is suducted the more material the mantle has to cause upheaval and/or volcanoes.
      Like it or not, erosion by water or air is part of the geological process.

    Where they are showing is north of Yellowstone, they have had some minor flooding yes, but not what they are showing here. People who were just there confirmed this. They are shutting down the park due to the heating and sulfur problems from the caldera. But don't expect for anyone to tell the truth, especially in this day and age. Cheers.

    People should not be building roads, or buildings, right by rivers, lakes and other bodies of water, and especially if there are also mountains, and/or cliffs, that abut such places. Moreover, there needs to be more reservoirs in that part of the country anyway, as having things like that are good safety measures against droughts, as well as wildfires. Granted, building tunnels into mountains might be more expensive, as well as somewhat more limiting, but do you all want washed out roads or do you all want roads that are more likely to stay open through both massive floods AND blizzards?
