The Yellowstone Trail

The Yellowstone Trail began in South Dakota in 1912 as an automobile route across America. The Yellowstone Trail Association located a route, motivated road improvements, produced maps and folders to guide the traveler and promoted tourism along its length. It became a leader in stimulating tourist travel to the Northwest and motivating good roads across America. Today, almost all of the route of the Yellowstone Trail is on slower, less traveled roads. You can follow the Yellowstone Trail in LaPorte County running through Wanatah and Hanna.
