Synopsis

Yosemite National Park spans over 2 million acres, but much of its backcountry remains unseen by visitors. National Geographic's "Secret Yosemite" reveals 300 newly discovered waterfalls hidden within this wilderness. The film also discusses the return of wolves to Yellowstone after a 50-year absence and their impact on the ecosystem alongside grizzly bears and bison. Geological features, including a vast reservoir of molten lava beneath Yellowstone, pose significant dangers. Satellite imagery and CGI animation enhance the visual experience.
