Rather than a view of the park's scenery, this item is a map of the Yellowstone Caldera, the sunken volcanic basin that covers much of the park's interior. The caldera formed in a massive eruption roughly 640,000 years ago, and its rim is still visible in the terrain. The U.S. Geological Survey produces maps like this one to show how the ground rises and falls above the magma system beneath the park, a process the agency's Yellowstone Volcano Observatory now monitors closely.
