The Man Who Saw Yellowstone and Was Mocked for It!

In 1807, John Colter, a former member of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, walked into a region of steaming ground and boiling water. What he described was so strange that the place was nicknamed "Colter's Hell." Historians still argue about where it really was. In this episode of The Untold Ground, we look at what the historical record actually says about Colter's journey, what he reported seeing, and what remains unresolved. The Untold Ground investigates real, verified historical events and discoveries tied to specific places. One place, one case file, one question that was never fully answered.
