From Yellowstone’s most recent season, we know that James settles the land, which will become the Yellowstone. Along the way, he encounters tribes of Native Americans, one with which he parleys during a flashback scene dated 1893, when John (John Dutton I.) is an adolescent. The second season of 1883 will probably not occur during its titular year, and we may find the narrative focusing more on an older John. (The current season has mostly taken the perspective of his sister, Elsa.)
Interesting thought. Never thought about how it got the name.Yellowstone ranch was named after yellow hair I guess.
From one of my Fly Fishing guides blog.Interesting thought. Never thought about how it got the name.
I am not disagreeing, okay? I'm just asking why Yellow...stone?
I thought about it last night. Maybe it has something to do with the conversation James and Margaret had in 9 about burying her on the trail and never visiting? Sam calls her stone Yellows stone?
Spitballing. I have no clue.
I'm aware of Yellowstone National Park and the river, but call me stupid, like always, lol, but surely it's more to it than that.From one of my Fly Fishing guides blog.
Edit: a fly fishing guide who’s blog I follow.
The Yellowstone river is on my bucket list.
Anyway
The Yellowstone river: The major river that runs through Yellowstone National Park is the Yellowstone River. The park is named for this body of water. ... When the trappers asked the Native Americans that lived there the name of the river, they responded “Mi tse a-da-zi.” This translates literally as “Rock Yellow River.” Yellowstone became the name over time.
I looked that up and it seems to match the story from the Yellowstone park website.
