About this map

Yellowstone National Park reveals its geothermal and geological complexity in this late 1950s survey, centered on the dramatic Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. The map documents the development of tourist infrastructure during a period of significant park modernization, highlighting the planned layout of Canyon Village and the concentrated lodging at Lake Junction, including the Lake Hotel and Lake Lodge. The landscape is a dense network of thermal features, from the Basin Group in the north to the Mud Volcano and Dragons Mouth Spring near the river.
