Bruce will speak on the Early Historical Mapping of Yellowstone National Park and the early published and unpublished cartography of what would become Yellowstone National Park. Information from government and private expeditions made up early mapping and included verbal information provided by Native Americans and fur trappers. A variety of historic maps will be illustrated and discussed in the slide show presentation.
There will be a speaker presentation about historical women who have had an impact on our community, tea and refreshments, as well as an opportunity to meet women in our community who are leaving their impact on history for generations to come!
