Almost 1000 more people visited
the Yellowstone Park in 1913 than
during the season of 1912, according
to the report Of the superintendent,
recently made to Secretary Lane.
The tourist travel has increased IS
per cent since 1906, and was heavier
in 1913 than ever before with the ex.
ception of 1909, when the Lewis and
Clark exposition was held in Port
land.
The most important work during
the year was that in connection with
the Improvement of the road system.
THE work ON the west entrance
read says the superintendent, CON
sisted In the widening of miles of
road to 25 feet and graveling of this
distance to provide subsurface, and
the widening of miles to about Is
feet preparatory to final widening to
rs fet. This gives partially improv-
ed road to the belt line junction 10
miles south Of Norris Geyser Basin.
Contracts for two bridges on the west
road have been let, and bridges will
be in place at the beginning of the
next tourist season. With continu.
ance Of present appropriation, the en-.
tire west entrance road will be Wild.
ened to Is feet by the end Of the 1914
working season, but the improvement
Of the road will not be finished until
several years later.
THE work on the east entrance
road to September 80, 1913, consisted
In general widening of the most mar.
row and dangerous portions to Is
feet, which will be the completed
width Of the road Complete or par.
tial widening was done on 20 Of the
28 miles OF this road
"The winter conditions for wild
game were again excellent" says the
superintendent. With plenty Of
grass, and the snow remaining soft
20 they could paw through 1t and
get food. the elk, deer, antelope, and
mountain sheep wintered we'll and
with but little loss.
During December, January, Febru
