2. Where is this giant?

Mount Yellowstone is located in the western part of the United
States. It is a classic example of a monolith, a huge, solid rock

level.

The Yellowstone is the result of powerful volcanic processes and
subsequent glaciation.

This is a volcano in the United States, known for its powerful
eruptions in the past and its active geysers today.
