Yellowstone's roads and bridges began as rough routes for horse-drawn wagons and stagecoaches, which carried early visitors after Congress set the area aside as the nation's first national park in 1872. The Army, which managed the park for much of its early history, did much of the road building. Automobiles were admitted in 1915, and the road network that followed gradually changed how visitors moved through the park to see its geysers and wildlife. The sequence is worth reading as a record of how transportation technology reshaped access to a remote wilderness.
