4K City Walks: Gardiner Montana Virtual Treadmill Walking Tour
Gardiner is a gateway town to Yellowstone National Park. There are several hotels in the town and restaurants. It lives and dies by tourism to the park. If you miss out on reservations within the park, this is a great place to base your visit. We go down to the park quite a bit from our home in Livingston, an hour down the valley to the north. The day I walked for this it was 50F which is quite warm. As I write this, it is -1F outside. So temperature and weather varies considerably. If you are looking for a place to eat, I highly recommend the K-Bar. They are family friendly and have great pizza.
From Wikipedia:
Gardiner is a census-designated place (CDP) in Park County, Montana, United States, along the 45th parallel. The population was 875 at the 2010 census.
Gardiner was officially founded in 1880, but the area has served as a main entrance to Yellowstone National Park since its creation in 1872. Parks' Fly Shop, one of the oldest fly shops and guiding operations in the Yellowstone area, was started by Merton Parks in 1953. Yellowstone National Park Heritage and Research Center, which opened May 18, 2005, is located in Gardiner and houses National Park Service archives, Yellowstone museum collections and reference libraries.
History
The name Gardiner derives from Johnson Gardiner, a fur trapper who operated in the area in 1830-31. He named the lush headwaters valley of today's Gardner River Gardner's Hole. Originally, named Gardiner's Fork, the river took on Gardiner's name although prospectors and explorers who visited the area later in the century were unaware of the trapper Johnson Gardiner. In 1870, when the Washburn-Langford-Doane Expeditionpassed through the area they began calling the river Gardiner—a phonetic error. Hiram M. Chittenden (1895) and Nathaniel P. Langford (1905) confirmed this spelling in their accounts of the expedition.
When the Hayden Geological Survey of 1871 passed through the Gardiner area, they encountered two men, named J.C. McCartney and H. R. Horr, who had laid claim to 320 acres (1.3 km2) and established a ranch and bath house on the Mammoth terraces near Liberty Cap. These entrepreneurs eventually established a primitive hotel at Mammoth and were not evicted from the area until many years after the park was established.[4] McCartney also went by the name Jim Gardiner and received messages, consignments and such destined for guests of his hotel addressed to: Jim on the Gardiner. On February 9, 1880, a territorial post office was established just outside the park boundary and Gardiner, Montana began.
In 1883, the Northern Pacific Railway completed the extension of their Park Branch Line from Livingston, Montana to Cinnabar north of Gardiner. In 1903, the line was extended to Gardiner.[5] Railroad service to Gardiner was discontinued in 1948.
Geography
Gardiner is located at 45°2′13″N 110°42′50″W
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 3.9 square miles (10 km2), of which, 3.8 square miles (9.8 km2) of it is land and 0.1 square miles (0.26 km2) of it (2.32%) is water. Quite a few of the residents either work in, or have at one time, worked in Yellowstone.

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK | MAMMOTH HOT SPRINGS | WHITEWATER RAFTING| HORSEBACK | RV LIVING | EP83
MAMMOTH HOT SPRINGS IS A MUST SEE AREA BECAUSE IT’S SO DIFFERENT THAN ALL THE OTHER GEYSERS IN YELLOWSTONE! ℹ️About the episode: Many areas are connected by boardwalks, so viewing them is easy and safe. They differ from the other springs in the park because they are mainly depositing limestone. This relatively soft mineral allows the rock deposited from the springs to accumulate, grow and form much faster than other formations created by the harder minerals. The shapes of these formations are constantly changing. There are over 50 hot springs throughout the area.
Sue signed up for a scenic float trip on the Yellowstone River at Flying Pig Adventure Company, in Gardiner, Montana. When she arrived, there weren’t enough signed up for that trip, so she immediately jumped onto their most popular rafting adventure “The 8 Mile Trip”. She was assured it was the perfect beginner white water river rafting trip, and it was!
The next day, Sue was still hungry for adventure, so she went Horseback Riding at the Diamond P Ranch, in West Yellowstone, Montana. Her 3 hour trail ride up into the elevated hillside in the distance was $85.

Gallatin River on U.S. Highway 191 in Montana
Highway 191 follows the Gallatin River between West Yellowstone and Bozeman, Montana. The Gallatin, a tributary of the Missouri River, is incredibly scenic and one of the premiere rafting rivers in the West, not to mention a popular fly-fishing destination as well. Calm water alternates with beautiful rapids and challenging whitewater. I didn't get the chance this trip to do any rafting but it's high on my must-do list for next time. What I did get this trip are a few video shots of the Gallatin as I rode Scenic Highway 191 to Bozeman from Yellowstone.
