Yellowstone Super Volcano Live Web Cam / Jackson Hole
I have looked and have not found any live webcams for Yellowstone National Park which is located in the northwest corner of the state of Wyoming even though scientists have data gathering machines all over this area and are studying the results with great interest. The closest live webcams I have found are in the kill zone which is Jackson Hole, Wyoming, just 2 1/2 hours south of the park. I live a little over 10 hours southeast of Yellowstone in the state of Colorado and we are still well within the primary ash zone.

Naked Science - Super Volcanoes (YELLOWSTONE)
Yellowstone, Wyoming. In spring 2003, strange things began happening in America's most famous national park. The tallest geyser in the world, which can go 50 years without erupting, burst into life. Spraying columns of superheated water, 100s of feet into the air. There were new cracks in the ground, the ground heated up to the point where the National Park Service had to close some trails. Not long after, a group of bison collapsed and died, victims of poisonous fumes from below the ground. Satellite pictures revealed that something ominous was happening beneath the earth. On the internet, unfounded rumours spread that a super volcano, an eruption so large, that it only occurs on average every 700,000 years, was about to blow. These things happen, you can look at the earth and see the scars. They happen, and they're going to happen again.

Was Trump Chosen By God To Be President?
Utah Protesters Call for Trump to Preserve National Monuments
More than 5,000 people rallied on the steps of the Utah State Capitol on Saturday afternoon to protest U.S. President Donald Trump’s expected shrinking of two national monument areas in the state. Trump is expected to visit Utah on Monday and announce cutting the size of Bears Ears National Monument and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, where drilling and mining are banned. Bears Ears is planned to be cut by 85 percent to 201,397 acres and Grand-Escalante to be halved to 997,490 acres. Trump has argued previous administrations abused their right to designate monuments under the Antiquities Act of 1906 and put millions of acres, mainly in western states, off limits to drilling, mining, logging and ranching without adequate input from locals. There was no sign of counter-protesters supporting Trump on the monuments issue on Saturday in Salt Lake City.
