Scenic drives and bypass roads like these are what turned the Grand Loop from a rough wagon trek into a practical tour, linking Yellowstone's geysers, canyons and lakes in a figure-eight circuit. Automobiles were first admitted to the park in 1915, and the Army and later the National Park Service widened and graded older routes for motor traffic. Bypass roads carried drivers around the busiest stretches and opened quieter country to visitors. Views of this network show how quickly the automobile changed the way people experienced the park.
