THE HAYDEN SURYEY OF THE YELLOWSTONE PARK, 1872 
DEATH OF LADY BLACKMORE 
It was a melancholy duty of the party in 
1872 to follow the tody of Lady Blaekmore, wife of 
the great traveler, Sir William Blaekmore, who 
accompanied us that year, to a humble grave at the 
base of the great range of mountains known as the 
Gallatin Range. Afterward, eight days were spent 
in ascending one of these snow-capped peaks, that it 
might be appropriately and officially named Blaekmore 
Peak.
