Yellowstone is well-known as one of the largest volcanic systems in the world. Few people know, however, that the largest-known subaerial landslide on Earth is located just next door.
Yellowstone Caldera Chronicles is a weekly column written by scientists and collaborators of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory. This week s contribution is from Annie Carlson, research coordinator at the Yellowstone Center for Resources, Yellowstone National Park.

It is a humble little structure, off the beaten path, with a unique story of its own.
