ABOUT US
In the 24 years we’ve been educating visitors in Yellowstone, we’ve had the extraordinary privilege to see the park through the eyes of some pretty incredible people. Leading researchers, poets, ranchers, park officials, authors, artists, tribal members, concessions employees, journalists, local residents, park volunteers and thousands of our students have inspired our own deep connection to Yellowstone; an experience we felt should be shared with a broader audience.
Our vision is to bring this unparalleled level of world-class Yellowstone knowledge and connection to a virtual format that is affordable, and available to anyone, anywhere. Most importantly, we wanted to create a community where people can not only deepen their understanding of the park but engage in meaningful conversations with speakers and with each other about the past, present, and future of Yellowstone.
The summit is a nonprofit event. Proceeds after expenses are donated to Yellowstone Forever in support of park projects. Since 2022, the summit has returned over $34,000 to Yellowstone.
