2012 Map of Lake

About this map

The northern shores of Yellowstone Lake define this 2012 survey, where geothermal activity and historic visitor infrastructure converge. Thermal features such as the Mud Volcano, Mud Geyser, and the evocative Black Dragons Caldron are clustered near the banks of the Yellowstone River, illustrating the active geology of the region. The map highlights the core development area at Lake, featuring the Lake Lodge and a Po serving as a central hub for those traveling the Grand Loop Rd. Farther north, the Yellowstone River flows past Nez Perce Ford and the turbulent LeHardys Rapids. Backcountry routes like the Howard Eton Trl wind through the timbered slopes of Elephant Back Mountain, providing a detailed look at the interface between the area's developed corridors and its expansive wilderness.
