The Cartwright Tunnel was built in 1912 and 1913, with the aid of horse- and mule-drawn machinery. Originally intended for rail and vehicle access, it's now part of a short but pleasant pedestrian trail across the Yellowstone River — although as of this writing it's under repair and not yet re-opened to pedestrian traffic. Even a visit to the entrance is impressive, though.
