About this map

Jardine and its surrounding peaks define this portion of the northern border of Yellowstone National Park. Located near Mineral Hill and Bald Mtn, the settlement represents a legacy of mining and mountain life. The landscape is dominated by the Absaroka Range, where the terrain drops sharply into the Black Canyon of the Yellowstone.

Hydrological features are central to the geography, with the Yellowstone River flowing through the southern portion of the sheet, past Knowles Falls and Crevice Lake. Local history is anchored at the Jardine Cem and the peaks that honor names like Palmer Mtn. Much of the territory is protected within the Gallatin National Forest, preserving a wilderness character shaped by the steep drainage of Crevice Cr and Bear Cr.
