Description

1 map : col., 19 x 24 cm.<br> This map shows the Upper Geyser Basin as it existed before the construction of any permanent buildings. At the time of this map, a permanent hotel existed several miles away near the Fountain Paint Pots (the Fountain Hotel), and the Upper Geyser Basin was a day trip for guests. In 1885, a large hotel was built on the Upper Geyser Basin, and it was replaced in 1903-04 by the Old Faithful Inn, which remains there today.
