YOSEMITE FACTS Yosemite became a National Park on October 1, It was chose to be a National Park because of it’s one of a kind landscape. The park used to be like the Gulf of Mexico. It was formed by sand, silt and mud that fell down from the ancient mountains into the water and formed a mountain range.

YOSEMITE FACTS What types of rocks can be found inside your park? You will find Plutonic Igneous rocks. Plutonic rocks are made underground when hot liquidey rock cools at a real slow pace and then it makes it with crystals. Also you can find Granite, Granodiorite, Tonality, Quartz Monzonite, and Quartz Monzodiorite. Plutonic rocks are made up of 5 minerals. What special landforms or features are inside your park? You will find a half-mile deep depression that was made by huge glaciers during the last ice age. Also, there are domes that are up to 3,000 feet tall and real pretty and strong waterfalls. The waterfalls are 3 of the highest in the world.

YOSEMITE FACTS Yosemite National Park has been visited by approximately 5 million. In million people showed for the first time and by 1976 the amount was up to 2 million. You will understand why the visitation has increased when all you have to do is look around and Yosemite’s beauty will take your breath away. The views are like no other in the world they are truly breath taking. The incredible sight of Half Dome, the big impact of El Capitan, the spray mists of Yosemite Falls, the lakes of the high country, the wildlife and plantlife, the giant trees also called sequoias all of natures finest is here.

Yosemite facks How is the land inside your park currently changing? The scientists said that there is a 24% percent decline in large-diameter trees. The large diameter trees are houses for moss and owls and other plant and animal life. The scientists think this is because of less rainfall and less snowfall. Without the rain and snow the trees become dry and are not growing like they used to. What environmental issues are affecting your park? The long dry summers are making the trees dry and causing the trees to become hurt by the large amounts of insects living in them.

Technology The governor has established some rules the park is taken care of by. The rules are: National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The rules are made to protect the land, plants and animal life that live there. People are not allowed to build there and also the park is restored to as much of it’s original way as possible. The National Parks get money from the governor that is called funds or grants. The rangers and lots of volunteers help to take care of the park and keep it safe and beautiful. The people like us that visit must follow rules to keep things nice.
