The experts who chose the wonders were Annie Griffith Belt, a photographer for the National Geographic Society; Brent D. Glass, director of the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, Michael Roberts, executive editor of Outside Magazine, and three others. Viewers chose Yellowstone National Park as an eighth wonder in an online vote.
