Doris Swenson graduated as valedictorian from high school and then taught at a rural high school for three years. She then attended the University of Nebraska for two years. After marrying Bill Whithorn in 1939, they moved to Worden, Montana, where Bill worked for several weeks. The couple relocated to Billings, Montana where Bill worked for The Yellowstone News. In 1948, Bill began working for the Billings Times. During his tenure at the newspaper the family grew with the birth of Alta, Bruce, Carol, and Duane. After six years with the Billings Times, and three years with the Gazette, the Whithorns moved to Park County, Montana. They lived at the Wan-I-Gan in Pray, south of Livingston for 28 years. They operated the store, gas station, and cabins at the one-stop tourist service. In 1951, Doris began creating jewelry and souvenirs from deer and elk horns. They built the Horn House in 1954 to display and sell these souvenirs. When a new highway was built diverting the traffic from the East River Road, Bill began working in Yellowstone Park as a seasonal maintenance man. In 1954, Bill Whithorn began reproducing old photographs, which motivated Doris to begin researching these images. In1960, Doris began writing illustrated stories based on the images and her research. In 1965, Fred Martin, editor of the Park County News asked them to prepare the annual edition of the pioneer issue for the newspaper. The pioneer issue became an annual 48- page paperback that led to a series of photo histories on nearby areas. In 1964, the Park County Museum Association was formed. In 1967, the Association leased rooms in the West Side School. Doris Whithorn served as the Museum Director and both she and Bill became quite involved with the development of the Museum. In 1974, the Museum is forced to move to the Lincoln School. In 1976, the Park County Museum Association agreed to purchase the North Side School. The purchase was split with Park County. In 1976, Bill and Doris Whithorn sold the Wan-I-Gan to move to the old North Side School in Livingston. An apartment was built in the basement allowing them to live in the museum as volunteer caretakers and overseers. Doris continued to serve as the Museum Director. Four large display rooms are completed with one focusing on Native Cultures. Doris and Bill devoted their time to the expansion and development of the museum and additional publications. The History of Park County 1984, a 512 page book, authored by Doris and 45 volunteers, was a major accomplishment. In 1986 they move from the museum to a house in Livingston. Doris and Bill Whithorn continued to publish books on the history of towns located in Park County. They traveled extensively to all 50 states and abroad. In 1990, Bill Whithorn died and in 1993, Doris moved back to the museum apartment. Doris continued to serve as Museum Director until 1997 when she moved to the Senior Center. In 1997, Mark Baker was hired as 2 part-time Museum Director and Doris continued to offer her knowledge and experience to the Yellowstone Gateway Museum of Park County for the next several years. Doris Whithorn wrote over 90 articles that were published in newspapers and magazines both regionally and nationally. She wrote 18 books with Bill and continued to write after he passed away. Doris was active in numerous organizations including: the Genealogy Society, Yellowstone Club, Park County Pioneers, Park County Historical Society, Montana Historical Society and the Retired Seniors Volunteer Program. Doris won several awards including: the Peter Yegen Lifetime Achievement Award from the Montana Historical Society, the Montana Governor’s Award as the District Senior Citizen of Distinction and the Chamber of Commerce Lifetime Achievement Award for Preserving Park County History. Doris had 4 children, 12 grandchildren, 19 great grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren. In the summer of 2013 Doris Whithorn passed away.

  • Native Fish Conservation
    Yellowstone SScience Native Fish Conservation @ JOSH UDESEN Native Trout on the Rise he waters of Yellowstone National Park are among the most pristine on Earth. Here at the headwaters of the Missouri and Snake rivers, the park’s incredibly productive streams and lakes support an abundance of fish. Following the last Tglacial period 8,000-10,000 years ago, 12 species/subspecies of fish recolonized the park. These fish, including the iconic cutthroat trout, adapted and evolved to become specialists in the Yellowstone environment, underpinning a natural food web that includes magnificent animals: ospreys, bald eagles, river otters, black bears, and grizzly bears all feed upon cutthroat trout. When the park was established in 1872, early naturalists noted that about half of the waters were fishless, mostly because of waterfalls which precluded upstream movement of recolonizing fishes. Later, during a period of increasing popularity of the Yellowstone sport fishery, the newly established U.S. Fish Commission began to extensively stock the park’s waters with non-natives, including brown, brook, rainbow, and lake trout. Done more than a century ago as an attempt to increase an- gling opportunities, these actions had unintended consequences. Non-native fish caused serious negative impacts on native fish populations in some watersheds, and altered the parks natural ecology, particularly at Yellowstone Lake. It took a great deal of effort over many decades to alter our native fisheries. It will take a great deal more work to restore them. As Aldo Leopold once said, “A thing is right when it tends to preserve the integrity, stability, and beauty of the biotic com- munity.

  • Mountain Lakes Guide: Absaroka, Beartooth & Crazies
    2021 MOUNTAIN LAKES GUIDE Silver Lake ABSAROKA - BEARTOOTH & CRAZY MOUNTAINS Fellow Angler: This booklet is intended to pass on information collected over many years about the fishery of the Absaroka-Beartooth high country lakes. Since Pat Marcuson began surveying these lakes in 1967, many individuals have hefted a heavy pack and worked the high country for Fish, Wildlife and Parks. They have brought back the raw data and personal observations necessary to formulate management schemes for the 300+ lakes in this area containing fish. While the information presented here is not intended as a guide for hiking/camping or fishing techniques, it should help wilderness users to better plan their trips according to individual preferences and abilities. Fish species present in the Absaroka-Beartooth lakes include Yellowstone cutthroat trout, brook trout, rainbow trout, golden trout, arctic grayling, and variations of cutthroat/rainbow/golden trout hybrids. These lake fisheries generally fall into two categories: self-sustaining and stocked. Self-sustaining lakes have enough spawning habitat to allow fish to restock themselves year after year. These often contain so many fish that while fishing can be fast, the average fish size will be small. The average size and number of fish present change very little from year to year in most of these lakes. Lakes without spawning potential must be planted regularly to sustain a fishery. Standard stocking in the Beartooths is 50-100 Yellowstone cutthroat trout fingerlings per acre every eight years. Special situations may call for different species, numbers, or frequency of plants. For instance, lakes with heavy fishing pressure tend to be stocked more often and at higher densities.
