The recently established Yellowstone National Park is shown in Wyoming Territory. An extensive railroad network runs throughout the East, with the Transcontinental Railroad and wagon roads shown in the western territories. Numerous Indian tribes are named. An inset at bottom right depicts Newfoundland.
