This attractive map of the park contains information useful to the tourist including stage roads, wagon roads, tourist sites, and hotels.

Topography is illustrated by an unusual and pleasing form of contoured shading that enhances interpretation for the tourist. Includes an inset titled Map of the Yellowstone National Park and Surrounding Country, which depicts the road system and the connection to the Northern Pacific Railroad in central Montana, the most common method of travel to the park. Surveyed and drawn by Carl J. Hals and A. Rydstrom.
