West Yellowstone, Montana - Earthquake aftermath Creepy earthquake history galore in this canyon. Earthquake in 1959 caused huge landslides. Rooftops of former mountain resort still poke up through the water. Drive your car on warped road segments that end at faultlines. A big visitor's center near the west end of the canyon tells of campers still buried in their tents. Anyone disappointed in earthquake park at Anchorage, Alaska should come here. This is the real deal. [K Ward, 07/04/2004]
