Ah, yes, the Roosevelt Arch! An icon of America's first national park. Located at Yellowstone's Northern Entrance in Gardiner, Montana, the Roosevelt Arch is one of the most iconic entrances in all of the National Park System. Maybe not in terms of scenic beauty (although there is that too), but certainly in terms of shear symbolism and monumentality. The story of the arch is one that is filled with ups and downs, much like the National Parks themselves, and has seen Yellowstone through much of its history. Join me in learning all about this iconic National Park monument!
