Zack Baker
Zack Baker attended high school in Livingston, Montana, 52 miles north of Yellowstone. His love for the park started while snowshoeing and observing wildlife. At Montana State University in Bozeman, he earned a B.S. in plant science, but it was Yellowstone’s mammals that grabbed his interest. He led private wildlife watching, hiking, and photography trips, and drove snowcoaches in the winter. He joined up with Road Scholar in 2017 and is now the Program Director for Road Scholar at the University of Montana Western.

Yellowstone: The Great Caldera
Program Number: 13845
Scorched Earth: How the Fires of Yellowstone Changed America
The Yellowstone fires brought to the forefront longstanding conflict over whether federal land management should go with immediate fire suppression procedures or the ‘let it burn’ philosophy. The author, who experienced the Yellowstone fires of 1988 as an environmental reporter there, reviews US wildlands fire history by highlighting wildlands fire management. Discussion of this history and the history of federal lands management considers how these policies shaped the protection of public lands in the US today. Further explained are the details behind the creation of Yellowstone National Park and the role the US Army played in ‘protecting Yellowstone and shaping public lands in the West.’
Decade of the Wolf, revised and updated edition: Returning the Wild to Yellowstone
Research and storytelling meld to document wolf recovery in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Wolf biologist, Smith, and nature writer, Ferguson, provide an inside look at the Yellowstone Wolf Recovery Project ten years after the controversial decision was made by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services to reintroduce wolves into the park. Smith, wolf project leader who has worked with the Yellowstone Wolf Project since its inception, has studied wolves for 25 years. Ferguson, whose writing largely arises from intimate experiences, followed through the seasons, the first 14 wolves released into Yellowstone National Park. Their collaboration offers hard facts and 'impressionistic portraits of individual wolves that reveal their epic lives full of struggle and conquest.' Here is the history of the return of the top predator to Yellowstone.
Wolf Land
Carter Niemeyer has followed wolves – and captured many – since he helped reintroduce them in the Northern Rockies in the mid-1990s. In his second memoir, Wolf Land, he takes us across the rugged West as he tracks wolves, shares in their lives, and seeks middle ground for these iconic animals, both on the land and in our hearts.
Carter Niemeyer is an Iowa native and a recognized expert on wolves, livestock depredation, and trapping. He is the retired Idaho wolf manager for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Niemeyer wrote his first memoir, Wolfer, in 2010.
Roadside Geology of Yellowstone Country
Updated, classic roadside geology book for the Yellowstone Region explains current geological theories.
To Save the Wild Bison: Life on the Edge in Yellowstone
The author brings clarity and revelation to one of Yellowstone's most complex struggles by tracing the history of bison and humans into the 19th century and further into the national parks era. Here's discussion of bison management and park policy - the battle over brucellosis, snowmobiles and groomed winter roads, desires of Native Americans, bison and predators.
The Sibley Guide to Birds
Sibley, a talented painter, offers this wonderful, data-packed color guide with range maps and detailed descriptions of songs and calls. This book is perfect for field trips with short walks and may be too heavy for some to take to the field in which case it can await back in the car.
After the Fires: The Ecology of Change in Yellowstone National Park
The ravaging fires of 1988 caused many scientists to predict long-term devastation which did not come to pass. This scientific summary by wildlife biologists, ecosystem and forest scientists and landscape ecologists discusses the many things that changed and did not change in the Yellowstone area. Realize the role of fire in the ecosystem and the resiliency of nature.
Restoring a Presence: American Indians and Yellowstone National Park
This first comprehensive account of Indians in and around Yellowstone corrects more than a century of ignorance. Detailed here is Yellowstone's native peoples and their story of a long engagement with a remarkable landscape.
National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Wildflowers: Western Region
This revised edition presents more than 940 full-color images showing western North American wildflowers in their natural habitats. The guide sports a waterproof, washable cover meant to be thrown into a pack and has a checklist/lifelist for those who like to keep track of identifications. The book is a good learning tool as its entries are color and shape sorted so that one may appreciate floral characteristics other than color. The identifier may compare flowers grown in the west to those grown in other areas of the country.

Virginia was an excellent guide. She was very knowledgeable, informative, helpful, organized, and had a sense of humor. I was absolutely impressed with her omniscient view of Yellowstone with regard to the geography, history, people, botanical aspects, and animals, to say the least. Lewis also was very skilled in his organizational duties and certainly wanted to be sure the travelers could more easily manage during the six days of our tour. The bus driver, Bryan, was so helpful in terms of answering questions, navigating the route, and assisting with the luggage.
I was very disappointed in the Grey Wolf Inn in West Yellowstone as the bathrooms had mold in them. The motel in Gardiner was a real "dump", and it seemed like a motel from the 1940s. However, the SpringHill Suites in Bozeman, Montana was absolutely delightful
The bag lunches were the same every day except when we ate at the Mammoth Springs Hotel, so the lunches were somewhat boring and redundant. There were no choices for our dinners which was disconcerting.

Now I know why Yellowstone is such a popular destination - the animals! They’re everywhere. And this program is a safe way to observe and experience the amazing landscape.

This is an outstanding program that greatly increases ones knowledge of all the sciences involved both in Yellowstone's creation and its current status as the major volcanic site in the world as well as home to America's largest mammals.

First Road Scholar trip, and what a positive experience! Leslie and Glynis were fabulous.
Having locals guide us through the park was incredibly priceless.
Leslie’s insights and information was at a startling level, yet delivered in a manner pleasing to hear and easy to digest.
As a speaker myself, a mentor long ago told me, “your audience will remember the height of your enthusiasm long after they have forgotten the depth of your knowledge.”
Leslie leaves me impressed by both. A true love and passion for the park and the work she does.
I understand now how this is often described as one of the truly most amazing areas in the world.
Also, special thank you to Zach for arranging the visit to the Heritage and Research Center.

What an absolutely amazing experience!! When the flood happened, I was so afraid the progam would be cancelled, but kudos to both Road Scholar and Yellowstone for making it happen! I learned so much; the instructors and group leader were exceptional. Their love of Yellowstone was apparent, and it was contagious. I know I have so much more to learn and experience. The farther I was away from Yellowstone, the more I felt it tugging me back. I shall return! An experience not to be missed!

Yellowstone: The Great Caldera tour is an exceptional blend of spectacular nature and landscape, abundant wildlife and fantastic learning opportunities. It also includes some daily physical activity but at various levels accommodating all participants.

Great way to visit Yellowstone Park. We saw more animals than I expected to. Leslie and Charlie were great guides and were a pleasure to be around.
— Review left May 19, 2022
Our RS Program Leader & Instructor were wonderful & were able to partially resolve a housing error caused by RS scheduling staff. Their local solution made it possible for me to participate however I may not have scheduled this trip if I had known that a triple room was not an option (even though it was described as such when I signed up).
— Review left May 19, 2022
I loved this program! Perhaps partly because it was my first trip after the pandemic! But it would have been wonderful anyway. The guides were beyond excellent and our small group (19) was quite cozy and compatible. Yellowstone exceeded my expectations. Loved it all, especially the geysers and the waterfalls. I found the trip was active enough for me if I took every opportunity to walk and hike. The food was adequate as were the accommodations. The scenery balanced those aspects out! The motel was conveniently located right at the entrance to the park, and our transportation by bus was comfortable. I highly recommend this program if you haven't been to Yellowstone yet. It is a great introduction to a fabulous park. I would have loved to have at least one day where we got up super early to see the wildlife. Some animals can only be sighted early in the morning. Other than that slight revision, I think the program is perfect.

Yellowstone is a lot more than Old Faithful. Its a massive wonder and this program allowed me to experience the major features and learn about the eco-system of the region.
— Review left September 7, 2021
Yellowstone was amazing. This trip was just the right amount of time to see most of the major attractions at the park. Our guide was a wealth of knowledge and knew the park inside and out. I loved learning about how all the features were formed and how the animals interacted with it all. I cannot recommend this trip enough!
— Review left August 17, 2021
I enjoyed the Yellowstone River Motel. (Comfortable but not fussy). I loved the five mile drive along the river to Mammouth Hot Springs. There are always elk around the Barracks. The bus driver was most co-operative. He always gave me a helping hand off the bus. He stopped for the double rainbow we saw and all bears!
— Review left June 23, 2019
This program far exceeded my expectations, though I have visited the park in the past. I especially enjoyed reading many of the books from the recommended reading list provided prior to the program. Leslie and Charlie were among some of the very best instructors we have had in our 22 Road Scholar programs. We covered a lot of territory over six very active days and saw more wildlife than expected. We enjoyed great weather early in the season and a very congenial small group of new friends.
— Review left June 16, 2019
Good wildlife divesity and great wildlife viewing, warm/clean motel room and convenient location, knowledgeable guides. The meals need improvement. You will learn the volcanic magnitude of this hotspot.
— Review left June 10, 2019
Wonderful trip! Leslie and Charlie were excellent guides/instructors and provided great information on wildlife, geology, history, and several more topics. Yellowstone National Park is amazing, and this trip included visits to many of the iconic sights. We also saw elk, bison, bears, moose, trumpeter swans, pronghorn antelope and other animals. It's great to have Road Scholar handle the logistics and the itinerary and just be able to enjoy the experience.

The Caldera cam alive for us on this trip! Our guides and presenters gave us an appreciation of the Park, animals, geology, and biological rational for the wonders we experienced. Unbelievable beauty - an inspirational week of knowledge, lore and an expanded understanding of our world!
— Review left May 25, 2019
I am 67 years old and hike at least once a week and walk the other days. The Yellowstone caldera trip provided daily walking of at least 2 miles. I would have liked a little more. The educational value was excellent. Field trips allowed me to learn about the history and geology of the Park, as well as the hydrothermal features and wildlife. The food was good and you will not go hungry. The accommodations were clean and close to the area restaurants. Two nights we had dinner in the Park. I highly recommend this trip.
