This is a list of towns along the Yellowstone Trail in Minnesota. They are arranged from east to west. Mileages are from Minneapolis as recorded in the 1920's and are listed here as an approximate indication of modern distances. Added to this list will be information about historic buildings, bridges, and sites. [The Mile-by-Mile pages are just being developed (Spring 2005) and will contain minimal information for some time.]
