About this map

Gardiner serves as the focal point of this 2014 survey, situated at the confluence of the Yellowstone River and the Gardner River. The map highlights the northern gateway to Yellowstone National Park, with the boundary line clearly separating the park from the Gallatin National Forest and the Absaroka Range. The settlement of Jardine sits to the northeast, connected by Jardine Rd and Old Bear Creek Rd, while the Gardiner Airport and Gardiner Cem provide essential community landmarks.

Dramatic geological formations dominate the landscape, from the steep walls of Gardner Canyon to the prominent Eagle Nest Rock. The terrain rises sharply toward the Absaroka Range, featuring peaks such as Sheep Mtn and Turkey Pen Peak. Local landmarks like the Yellowstone River Bridge and McMinn Bench reflect the intersection of human infrastructure and the high-altitude topography characteristic of this Montana region.
