Notes from the Yellowstone Skype:
- It will be hard to keep the animals close-This is bad because if our animals are dead we are going to die.
- In the late 1800 there where many fur traders.-Like us!!!!
- A lot of people would go there for the beavers-So are we in our simulation
- Beavers became scarce after this.-This was bad because people lost there jobs.
- Nobody really lived here besides the natives-We will not settle here because we are going to Oregon
- There are over 6 feet of snow there sometimes.-No wonder nobody wanted to live there.
- Rugged place- It is also kind of stuck in the middle of nowhere
- Wheeled vehicles are not allowed in Yellowstone today.-What why?
- One famous trapper here was named Osborn Russel and having interactions with Indians.-I never new that guy.
- They would use obsidian to make arrows-I would not want that to be my job.
- People here would tell stories or myths.-I wish I could tell stories!!!
- There are many volcanic eruption there.-Who new that they would reach all the way to different states?
- There where 26 different tribes in Yellowstone back then.-That is a lot!!!
- Petrified wood look like normal wood.
- As far as those people telling stories the also had some truth to them.
- It has been a long time since a volcanic eruption.-Whew!Maybe we won't get hit by a volcano.
- Many of the hot spring in Yellowstone will kill you.-Yikes I do not want to go in those boiling pots.
- When the gas mixes with water it can turn into acid.
- There are mud pots.-I could clean off in the mud like a pig!!!
