About this map

The Yellowstone River flows through the eastern portion of this landscape, carving through Yankee Jim Canyon and opening into the broad Paradise Valley. This 2020 map documents the enduring infrastructure of Park County, where the historic Old Yellowstone Trl and the Yankee Jim Toll N follow the river's path, tracing routes long established for transit into the mountain interior. Small settlements like Carbella and Miner sit along these corridors, serving as gateways to the high country of the Gallatin National Forest.

Away from the river, the terrain rises sharply toward peaks like Crystal Cross Mtn and Mans Foot Mtn. The map preserves the names of specialized routes such as the Fisher Wagon Route, which hints at earlier modes of high-altitude logistics. From the quiet waters of Ferrell Lake to the secluded Tom Miner Basin, the area remains characterized by its complex drainage network, including Stoughten Cr and Rock Cr.
