Gardiner Montana—Upcoming Events Shakespeare in the Parks: Othello - July 13 BrewGrass Fest July 21 Big Bear Stampede September 8 FOR DETAILS AND MORE INFORMATION, VISIT: www.visitgardinermt.com/events-blog/events 2 3 Great Western Trail Montana/Idaho Connection Celebration - July 14 The Great Western Trail Association, in partnership with Custer Gallatin National Forest, is happy to announce the dedication of a new segment of the Great Western Trail that connects the existing Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, and Idaho sections with Montana. Come and join the celebration and the trail dedication to be held on Saturday July 14th at 12:00 noon at the Old Airport in West Yellowstone, Montana. (GPS coordinates: 44.661, - 111.115.) After the dedication ceremony we will be riding along the Montana portion of the Great Western Trail to the Idaho border, approximately 9 miles. When recognized as a National Millennium Trail by the Department of Transportation and the White House Millennium Council, Former Secretary of Transportation Rodney E. Slater stated that “Transportation is about more than concrete, asphalt, and steel, it’s about people. Millennium Trails will connect our nation’s land- scape, heritage and culture and symbolize America’s legacy for the new millennium.” The Great Western Trail provides a fantastic long distance recreation experience, promotes opportunities for economic growth, provides multi-use access to our public lands, and acquaints the user with the culture, history, and traditions of the West. The Great Western Trail is under study by Congress to become part of the National Trail System. The GWT is a 3,000+-mile corridor of already existing trails, routes and roads, mostly on public lands. Forest Service, Bu- reau of Land Management and other land management agencies have identified points where these routes natu- rally link together, forming a corridor of trails that runs from the Mexican border ultimately to the Canadian border. The trail is a predominately multi-use system, allowing both motorized and non-motorized recreation on both shared and separated paralleling routes. (see www.gwt.org). This dedication commemorates the completion of a new Montana segment that will link with the extensive sec- tions of the Great western Trail that already exist in the states of Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, and Idaho. This dedication event presents an opportunity to celebrate the partnerships between the users and developers of the trail, the numerous land management agencies, and the surrounding communities. This grass roots effort will insure continued development and maintenance of the Great Western Trail.

The Notice to Proceed was issued to Dick Anderson Construction on Thursday, July 5. Construction is anticipated to last through the end of October. Bids for a phase 2 construction contract are expected to be solicited in the fall of 2018. Dick Anderson Construction will begin by con- structing temporary platforms for crew sleeping facilities. This summer’s work will include new foundation work to stabilize and level the interior structure, with the ultimate goal of supporting a roof. After the foundation is constructed, the main work will include seismic stabilization through the construction of the interior walls, floors, and roof framing. The roof constructed in 2018 will be a temporary membrane to protect the structure through the 2018-2019 winter. Materials will be delivered via helicopter and mule train to support reconstruction activities. The Sperry Chalet Dining Room will begin operating to serve construction crews and visitors to the area. Lunch and a la carte services are available from 11 am – 5 pm. Breakfast and dinner will be available to the public via reservation with Belton Chalets, Inc. by calling (888) 345-2649. Earlier this summer, Glacier National Park trail crews, conservation corps, and the Flathead National Forest Hot Shots successfully cleared thousands of trees that had fallen on trails throughout the Sprague Fire burn area and improved trail tread. Though all trails within the Sprague Fire burn area are cleared, hikers along the Gunsight Trail to the chalet (commonly referred to as the Sperry Trail) will notice that very limited shade is available following the fire. Though the hike up to Sperry Chalet has never been recommended as an up and back one-day hike, the park is now advising hikers to be particularly careful if they attempt it due to extreme heat from the sun following the burn.

  • 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.
