Lost in the Yellowstone

In September 1870, Truman Everts was separated from one of the first exploratory parties in what is now Yellowstone National Park. With little food, equipment, or cold-weather clothing, Everts spent more than a month wandering the wilderness before two mountaineers found him alive: frostbitten, scalded, and delirious. Nobody else has been lost so long in Yellowstone and survived.

This is one of the West's most fantastic dramas, high adventure in every sense of the word. Lost in the Yellowstone contains Truman Everts's original high-adventure chronicle of hardship and survival, newly augmented with biographical and background information.

Amazing

Fantastic story of survival. What man can endure is phenomenal. Down to 45 lbs & survived.

Tragedy and cliffhanger story

I like the ageless style of the book. Driving through Yellowstone while listening with my boys was priceless and we all got something from our level! Highly recommend it. Don’t listen to the whining, just play it and drive.

Amazing Tale of Being Lost in Yellowstone

This happy-ending tale is such a good reminder of how lucky we are to live today, driving on paved roads with GPS and eateries in all corners of the Earth!
I was only shocked to hear of how Everts treated the great man who saved him, when meeting up with him at a later date. People just haven’t changed.

Marvelous journey of survival

This is an amazing story of fortitude and determination to survive in such a beautiful but harsh environment of Yellowstone. Having experience of being lost in the mountains in a blizzard this story was even more powerful and personal. The narrator, Jack Sondericker, gave it a wonderful touch. Would highly recommend.
