Hunter's Hot Springs Era Ends with Fire at Park County Resort
The article recalls Dr. A J Hunter who opened Hunter's Hot Springs in Park County and established the first post office in the upper Yellowstone valley in 1878. After the 1932 fire destroyed the hotel and Springdale attracted patrons, the post office was abandoned and the historic resort faded from prominence.
