1955 Map of Gardiner

About this map

The North Entrance of Yellowstone National Park defines the southern boundary of this mid-century survey, where the Northern Pacific railroad terminates at Gardiner. This area serves as a critical transition between the high-altitude wilderness of the Gallatin National Forest and the nascent park infrastructure of the 1950s. The settlement of Jardine sits tucked into the mountains to the northeast, connected by rugged terrain to landmarks like Mineral Hill and Palmer Mountain.
