Wind break
Dwelling defense
Thermal temperament
In a wide-open expanse of western high prairie, a domicile endures the harsh seasons. A functional analysis indicates a residential mobility pattern is more consistent with the prevailing environmental conditions.
“The prairie skies can always make you see more than what you believe.” – Jackson Burnett
Gently simmering
Varying shades
Texture range
A mile-long loop trail negotiates a significant thermal area. Governmental control here seeks to allow appreciation access with minimal environmental damage to the site coupled with visitor safety.
“The mud in the area varies in consistency, with some sections very runny and others thick as, well, mud.” – Courtney Holden
Winter snow
Angled sun
Observation
Looking down provides interest as snow simplifies the visual palette. Such close encounters consider biota as a geomorphological agent having a role in shaping the Earth’s surface.
“The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.” – Henry Miller
Yellowstone exploration
Unique experience
Winter adventure
In creating a complete sense of the event, room accommodations and associated accouterments contribute to comprehensive expedition enjoyment.
“The hotel is literally right outside of the West Entrance to Yellowstone, you could actually walk to the entrance!” – Iluvboaz
Significant geyser basin
Geothermal surrounds
Water temperature increase
The Firehole River is conceivably the most peculiar waterway in the world. Streaming through three large active geyser basins, complete with mud pots and hot springs, the outflow from these thermal features discharges directly into the main current.
“We shall never know and name all the hot springs and geysers of this wonderland, but we may become acquainted with the voice of a stream and know it as the speech of a friend.” – Orange Perry Barnes
Abstract generalization
Linear independence
Vector spaces
Line shadows in the snow intersect and recombine in an aesthetically abstract mathematical realm. Multiple edges are considered as loopless matroids within finite nonempty sets of radiation defined objects.
“Two classes of objects are cryptomorphic if they are “really” the same thing but the link is not clear.” – Garrett Birkhoff
Structural integration
Topological margins
Domain theory
Bands of color mark areas of similar morphology. Any internal structure requires boundary establishment. Things are identified by and depend on other things in terms of functional relation, developmental evolution, and configuration.
“Even in the realm of things which do not claim actuality, and do not even claim possibility, there exist beyond dispute sets which are infinite. ” – Bernard Bolzano
Flow transitions
Empirical features
Speed and density
A traveling phase transition can be visualized as high way motion within a circulatory system smeared out across time. Randomness meets discretion at each passing moment, described by probability distributions.
“Everything we care about lies somewhere in the middle, where pattern and randomness interlace.” – James Gleick
Location orientation
Covered wagon dining
Middle of West Yellowstone
Addressing issues such as the perception and representation of space and place, expired license plates used as a decorative element embellishing a crude hand-paint park map serve as identification markers setting an environmental style.
“If two different authors use the words ‘red’, ‘hard’, or ‘disappointed’, no one doubts that they mean approximately the same thing . . . But in the case of words such as ‘place’ or ‘space’, whose relationship with psychological experience is less direct, there exists a far-reaching uncertainty of interpretation.” – Albert Einstein
In the light
Physical presence
Temperature interface
Natural phenomena become more miraculous with scarcity. Nature, in many circumstances, seems to work by a sort of secret magic.
“In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.” – John Muir
