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 4 5 gardiner was impacted by the 2022 montana floods 6 etymology edit the name gardiner derives from johnson gardner a fur trapper who operated in the area in 1830 31 7 he named the lush headwaters valley of today s gardner river gardner s hole originally named gardner s fork the river took on gardner s name although prospectors and explorers who visited the area later in the century were unaware of the trapper johnson gardner in 1870 when the washburn langford doane expedition passed 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 8 mccartney s hotel edit 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 km 2 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 9 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 citation needed history edit pre contact edit evidence shows that native americans have lived and hunted in the gardiner area since at least 11 000 years ago 10 in the nez perce war of 1877 the united states forced all the nez perce people who formerly lived on the yellowstone plateau which includes gardiner onto reservations 10 early gardiner edit between 1860 and 1880 the confluence of the gardner and yellowstone rivers exactly where gardiner is located today was settled by prospectors and entrepreneurs interested in placer claims and the local hot springs 10 gold was discovered along bear gulch in 1865 and claims caused a large rise in new settlers 10 along with prospecting the rivers themselves new settlers would arrive and start ranches in order to make a living supplying them 10 a notable homesteader was james c mccartney who had initially built a hotel near mammoth hot springs but due to his relationship with park officials and shifting park policies relocated to gardiner in 1879 10 yellowstone national park was established in 1872 10 settlers now also started businesses catering to early park visitors and the u s army facing the park and located very closely on the park s north boundary 10 gardiner s future location was well placed for this 10 notable services the town provided to coal miners gold miners and soldiers nearby were drinking gambling and prostitutution 11 early on the small town of gardiner was described in one account as a veritable shantyville an ideal squatter town with the rudest houses 11 early 1900s postcard showing gardiner in the early 1880s the northern pacific railroad announced a planned branch line to yellowstone park near gardiner 11 in 1883 the northern pacific railway had completed the extension of their park branch line from livingston montana to cinnabar 12 a new town north of gardiner 12 that grew up around the rail line terminus 10 the terminus would have been in gardiner itself but land disputes made that impossible until 1902 10 despite this gardiner continued to grow spurred on strongly by the speculation that the railroad terminus would eventually arrive 10 on february 9 1880 a territorial post office was established just outside the park boundary 8 park county was created in 1887 and county officials both hired a constable and built the first jail in gardiner 11 unfortunately this jail burned down in 1898 making it impossible to lock up drunks and criminals 11 gardiner jail the second one the first trains finally arriving in gardiner in 1902 filled with tourists arrived to views of prostitutes showing off in front of the train windows 11 according to a local newspaper account monday night there was almost continuous yelling and shooting from midnight to daylight women of ill fame live in the central part of town and exhibit themselves daily on the streets in bedroom wrappers and make a show of themselves in doors and windows on arrival of the train 11 a new jail was ready by mid september 1903 11 the arrival of the railroad caused the town to flourish continuing to serve tourists and local soldiers 10 later as automobiles became more important the town adapted to serve them 10 modern history edit railway service at gardiner station was eventually discontinued 10 specifically in 1948 13 its role was taken on by the state highway passing through the town 10 by 2022 housing prices had increased in gardiner and there were fewer families 14 geography edit devil s slide north of gardiner
