1986 Map of Canyon Village

About this map

Canyon Village serves as the primary gateway to one of nature's most significant carvings in this 1980s-era study of Yellowstone National Park. The landscape is dominated by the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, where the Yellowstone River plunges over Upper Falls and Lower Falls. This period of the park’s history is meticulously documented, showing the layout of the Campground, Trailer Park, and the essential Sewage Disposal Plant supporting the seasonal population. To the south, the terrain shifts into the hydrothermal activity of the Crater Hills, featuring thermal landmarks like Sulphur Caldron and Dragons Mouth Spring. The map also traces an extensive network of a Pack Trail that connects isolated spots like Point Sublime and Ribbon Lake to the more developed visitor hubs at Canyon Junction.
