Yellow Jammers are antique buses used at Yellowstone National Park to transport park visitors on specialty tours. They were manufactured as the Model 706 by the White Motor Company from 1936-1939. The distinctive vehicles, with roll-back canvas convertible tops and wood body, were the product of noted industrial designer Alexis de Sakhnoffsky, and originally operated in seven National Parks. Yellowstone National Park still operates seven of their original buses today. Yellowstone's seven buses were restored in 2007 by TransGlobal. The bodies were removed from their original chassis and built upon modern Ford E-Series van chassis. The original standard transmissions were also replaced with newer automatics, removing the trademark "jamming" sound.
Shrubby Cinquefoil (Dasiphora fruticosa) thrives in dry to wet areas and rocky regions to open meadows. This deciduous shrub can reach a height of 3 to 4 feet. The leaves are small and compound, with fine hairs. The bright yellow flowers can be found from April to July. When the plant is mature, the bark becomes flaky, papery and thin. This hardy plant is often used as an ornamental shrub. It's a great solution to erosion and can be used to stabilize slopes. NPS
