NPM-DVD-128 - Located in the north west of the U.S.A is Yellowstone, a national park of the superlative in which the impressive white water of Old Faithful is today one of the most famous and most photographed natural spectacles in the world. Indeed, for more than a century this mighty geyser has been the proud and unique landmark of the oldest national park in the United States. The Yellowstone National Park is famous for its highly visible geological processes. The area close to Old Faithful not only features a number of geysers but also numerous hot springs that highlight the tremendous thermal power that lies beneath the earth's surface. Today the Grand Geyser is the largest active geyser in the world. Its huge eruptions occur every eight to fourteen hours and last for nine to twelve minutes and can sometimes reach a height of sixty metres. The Yellowstone is one of the largest volcanoes in the world. Because it is located directly above a geological hot spot, a huge cave constantly fills with magma. It is situated at a depth of eight kilometres and is the reason for the park's visible geo-thermal activity. Some kilometres south of Nymph Lake is another geothermal area, the Norris Geyser Basin. This area is unique among the landscapes of Yellowstone Park as it is not only the park's hottest area but also boasts the largest geyser in the world, Steamboat Geyser. Although Yellowstone National Park is important for North America's plant and wild life, this nine thousand square kilometre nature reserve is primarily a geological park. Amazing, fantastic, incredible and wonderful: how can you put into words a place that provides so many remarkable glimpses of the inner workings of Planet Earth?

EXT-DVD-18 - WILD WEST RODEO Brave men on the back of strong bulls in the world of rodeo where cowboys and the Wild West continue to thrive in a spectacular way: in the U.S. federal state of Wyoming this colourful tradition is held in high esteem. The small town of Cody has eight thousand inhabitants and not only has Buffalo Bill's family name but was also founded by him in 1896. Around two kilometres from Cody is another attraction, Old Trail Town whose twenty six timber buildings and log cabins form a splendid and atmospheric museum. One of the most interesting buildings is Curly's Cabin. Curly was an Indian scout who served under General Custer and managed to survive the Battle Of The Little Big Horn. Although Cody's main source of income is tourism due to Yellowstone Park, the Buffalo Bill Stampede Rodeo and the arena that was built especially for this event also help the local economy and each evening from the beginning of June until the end of August rodeo performances take place in Stampede Park. Today's rodeo keeps up the old traditions of the USA's pioneering times in spectacular fashion and entertains onlookers with the thrill of various exciting events and the atmosphere of times long gone.
