Steam rises over the log buildings in this view, with a geyser plume behind them, placing the scene at the geyser basins of Yellowstone, the national park established in 1872 as the first of its kind in the world. The log structures reflect the rustic style favored by early park concessions and lodges, built to blend with the forested landscape while serving visitors who came to see the thermal features. Work by photographers such as Jackson, Hayden, and Moran helped shape public understanding of the region, and their images were influential in persuading Congress to protect it.
