At the request of Park County Montana, Western Federal Lands Highway Division (WFL) conducted a study of the Old Yellowstone Trail South (OYTS) road alignment for potential improvements to the corridor through the Federal Lands Access Program. This effort strives to identify feasible improvements within the study area based on needs identified by the public, the study partners, and resource agencies. It will serve as a pre-NEPA evaluation to identify reasonable options for the 21-mile corridor from Gardiner, MT to Highway 89 South at Point of Rocks and serve as a resource for future funding opportunities. This study is not intended to be a decision document and does not require allocation of any funds towards a specific project contained in the report. Future projects will be determined on a case-by-case basis. A major consideration for this corridor is the proximity to Yellowstone National Park and inclusion within Custer Gallatin National Forest. Maintenance, improvements and decisions regarding management of the corridor must be a collaborative effort and consider the resources and mission of each of the agencies involved. The Old Yellowstone Trail South Corridor Study is available for review on the website at http://www. parkcounty.org/Our-Projects/Yankee-Jim-Canyon-Old-Yellowstone-Trail-South-Planning- Project.

The individual was cross-country skiing on the Grand Loop Road near the South Rim Drive when the incident occurred. Witnesses took the 43-year-old woman to the Canyon Visitor Education Center, where rangers provided initial treatment for puncture wounds and lacerations to her head and arm. Rangers transported her to Mammoth Hot Springs by over-snow vehicle, and then she continued on to a medical facility. Park staff temporarily closed the road, then positively identified and killed the coyote. The coyote is being necropsied and will be tested for rabies. “Encounters like these are rare, but they can happen. We suspect this coyote may have been starving due to having porcupine quills in its lower jaw and inside its mouth. Its young age likely led to its poor condition and irregular Lori Hamilton behavior,” said wildlife biologist Doug Smith.

By Ryan Peerboom, Enterprise Staff Writer The Gardiner Speech, Drama and Debate team won the Class C State Championship on Saturday at the state meet in Bigfork. The win is a return to the top for Gardiner, which had won 12 consecutive state titles before finishing second last year due to a tiebreaker. Winning has become synonymous with the program. “It’s a little bit of a tradition,” head coach Christina Cote-Reinhart said. Cote-Reinhart has overseen 14 state championships in her 20 years as coach. The state meet is combined between Class B and Class C schools, where the schools with the highest totals for each classification are named state champions. The Speech and Debate team scored 46 points while the Drama team scored 41 points. Both were the highest total for Class C schools. Elisabeth Leafty and Veronika Macy were the only individual champions. The two finished first in the Humorous Duo competition. Other top finishers include: • Elijah Leafty, who finished in second place for his Mime act. • Alexis Sullivan, who finished fourth in Informative Speaking. • Anola Stacy, who finished fourth in Lincoln- Douglas Debate. • Keena Lewis, who finished sixth in Extemporaneous Debate. Cote-Reinhart, who coaches alongside Dorothy Dears and John Sacklin, said that everything is earned, despite the sustained success of the program. “Every year you have to start back (at the beginning),” she said. “It’s not like you get a boost one year to the next. We earn it every year.” Cote-Rienhart noted that while every team is different, this year the team included plenty of quality individuals.

  • Geological History of the Yellowstone National Park
    GEOLOGICAL HISTORY OF THE YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 1912 WASHINGTON ; GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE : 1912 This publication may be purchased from the Superintendent of Docu­ ments, Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C., for 10 cents. 8 GEOLOGICAL HISTORY OF THE YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK. By ARNOLD HAGUE, United States Geological Survey. The purpose of this paper is not so much to elucidate any special problem connected with the many interesting geological questions to be found in the Yellowstone Park, as to offer such a general view of the region as will enable the tourist to understand clearly something of its physical geography and geology. The Yellowstone Park is situated in the extreme northwestern portion of Wyoming. At the time of the enactment of the law establishing this national reservation the region had been little explored, and its relation to the physical features of the adjacent country was little understood. Since that time surveys have shown that only a narrow strip about 2 miles in width is situated in Montana and that a still narrower strip extends westward into Idaho. The area of the park as at present defined is somewhat more than 3,300 square miles. The Central Plateau, with the adjacent mountains, presents a sharply defined region, in strong contrast with the rest of the northern Rocky Mountains. It stands out boldly, is unique in topographical structure, and complete as a geological problem. The central portion of the Yellowstone Park is essentially a broad, elevated, volcanic plateau, between 7,000 and 8,500 feet above sea level, and with an average elevation of about 8,000 feet.

Embracing large, diverse, and complex geologic features, the park is in an area that is critical to the interpretation of many significant regional geologic problems. In order to provide basic data bearing on these problems, the U.S. Geological Survey in 1965 initiated a broad pro­ gram of comprehensive geologic and geophysical investigations within the park. This program was carried out with the cooperation of the National Park Service, and was also aided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, which supported the gathering of geologic information needed in testing and in interpreting results from various remote sensing devices. This professional paper chapter is one of a series of technical geo­ logic reports resulting from these investigations.

Rumors of marine reptiles, trilobite mass death assemblages, and even dinosaurs in Yellowstone have lured a team of paleontologists in the same way that the legends of "Colter's Hell" and Jim Bridger's "Tall Tales" have attracted many before. Compared to other natural resources at Yellowstone National Park, fossils have received little attention. Except for the research conducted on the petrified forests, Yellowstone's fossils have remained a relative "paleo-incognita" more than 125 years after the park's establishment. As this survey demonstrates, the lack of paleontological research is not due to a lack of significant fossils. Perhaps historian Aubrey Haines provided the best explanation in his comment, "Past administrations preferred that resources not in the public's eye be left alone" (pers.
