The route covers thermal features, birds, wildlife, water, weather, human traces, and ambient soundscapes. Example specimens include American Coots, American Robin, Bird Chorus, Red Fox, Sandhill Crane, Soundscapes, American Dipper, Old Faithful, Fountain Paint Pot, Wolves, Elk, Thunder, and Yellowstone Lake Singing.
Each route item includes a stable id, title, time-of-day label, theme, zone label, description, credit, audio path, and often an image path plus a field note.
Agents should fetch /llms.txt for a short overview and /llms-full.txt for complete context. Use /atlas/dawn-to-night.json when the user needs structured metadata, specimen names, or audio paths. Use /atlas/ when the user wants to listen or browse visually.
YSL has no account system, OAuth flow, private data, write API, MCP server, A2A endpoint, payment flow, or webhook system. The OpenAPI description documents only public, read-only static GET resources.
This is not an official National Park Service product. Source labels identify the sound and image files as National Park Service materials. Downstream users should verify rights and third-party restrictions for their own use.
