Excerpt from Report Upon the Yellowstone National Park, to the Secretary of the Interior: For the Year 1879 Sir: I have the honor to submit for your approval, and for publica tion, my third annual report of Operations for the protection, preserva tion, and improvement of the Yellowstone National Park, during the season of 1879. Vexatious delays and loss for want of various articles not obtainable near the park prompted my purchasing a steel reversible or side-hill plow, and other tools and implements, mainly in Detroit, and forward ing them to Bismarck for shipment upon the first steamboat to ascend the Yellowstone River, myself following them from Detroit May 12. At Bismarck, fortunately failing to connect with the steamer Yellow stone (which was lost upon that trip at Buffalo Rapids), 1 shipped with my outfit up the Missouri River direct to Fort Benton, and thence, after forwarding it by a freighter, pressed on via Helena to Bozeman. I there organized my field party with O. M. Stephens as assistant, and with wagons and horsemen pressed forward 80 miles, reaching the Mammoth Hot Springs, in a terrific rain and sleet storm, June 12, being just one month in making some miles by the various modes of travel and circuitous route necessarily taken.
