Hells Half Acre, Yellowstone National Park, USA, 1888: A Historical Snapshot This engraving captures the awe-inspiring beauty and otherworldly landscape of Hells Half Acre in Yellowstone National Park, as viewed from the North in 1888. The large amount of steam issuing from the hot springs that characterise this unique part of the park adds to its mystique and intrigue. Established on March 1, 1872, by President Ulysses S. Grant, Yellowstone National Park was the world's first national park, created "for the benefit and enjoyment of the people." Hells Half Acre, with its colorful name and geothermal features, quickly became a popular attraction. President Grant recognized the importance of preserving the natural wonders of Yellowstone for future generations to appreciate. This engraving is a testament to the historical significance of the park and its unique geothermal features. The steam rising from the hot springs in Hells Half Acre is a reminder of the geothermal activity that makes Yellowstone such a unique and fascinating place. The area is named for the contrasting colors and textures of its terrain, which appears to be a "half acre of hell" due to the bubbling hot springs and hissing geysers. This engraving provides a glimpse into the past, offering a historical perspective on the natural wonders of Yellowstone National Park and the importance of preserving them for future generations to enjoy.
