At the North Entrance, visitors pass through this massive stone arch named for Theodore Roosevelt, who placed the cornerstone for the arch during its construction. Designed by Robert C. Reamer, the architect who built Old Faithful Inn, it was completed in 1903. This is the point where tourists once left the train to board stagecoaches that would take them around the Grand Loop. Above the arch is carved the motto, "For the benefit and enjoyment of the people." North Entrance (near Gardiner, Montana), Yellowstone National Park. http://www.yellowstone-natl-park.com/arch.htm.
