One could drive to Morning Glory (thus, through the entire UGB, including
the one-way loop past Daisy to Black Sand [ending at the Lower Station] )
through the 1970 season at least -- seems to me that road was closed in the
fall of '70. I still love the photos of Mortar in eruption with my yellow
jeep in the parking area across the road. (Yes, in those days one was not
only free to, but was encouraged to, go to the other side of the river.)

Lynn and other unmet friends,
I had to look it up.
I had to google a bit to find it, but the Old Faithful interchange was
constructed in 1969.
So driving to Morning Glory must be before then. Since my first visit
was 1949,
I actually remember this road pattern. But so could anyone else over
50 or so.
Thanks for bringing back lots of fond memories.
