Let's make sure that 125 years from now, Yellowstone is still vital and inspiring, full of magic and discovery, a place that anyone will be able to love and enjoy for a lifetime. The Yellowstone Association Institute sponsors outdoor courses for all age groups, some of which are especially designed for women, families, and children. The Institute's purpose is to explore Yellowstone in order to understand and appreciate its natural wonders. The Institute overlooks the beautiful Lamar Valley, a haven for elk, bison, mule deer, bighorn sheep, and other large mammals. Fieldwork also takes place at locations throughout the park.
Academic credit is available for designated courses.
