About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts through this high-altitude landscape, flowing northward past the small settlement of Miner and through the narrow confines of Yankee Jim Canyon. Much of the quadrangle is defined by the protected lands of the Gallatin National Forest, where steep peaks like Crystal Cross Mtn, Mans Foot Mtn, and the uniquely named Dog Tooth Rock watch over the drainage basins.

Remote waterways including Tom Miner Cr and Ferrell Cr feed into the river system, while high-country basins such as Tom Miner Basin provide a sense of the area's isolated topography. Trace the routes of historical thoroughfares like the Old Yellowstone Trl and Old Yellowstone Trl S, which mirror the river's path. These corridors, along with the cluster of labels near Sphinx, offer a detailed record of the geography and named landmarks within this section of Park County.
