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.
