2018 Map of Alpine

About this map

Alpine sits at a major crossroads of high-altitude canyons and hydrology along the border between Wyoming and Idaho. This 2018 survey captures the intricate shoreline of the Palisades Reservoir, where the Salt River and other drainages converge. The settlement pattern is concentrated around Alpine Junction and the Alpine Airport, serving as a gateway to the surrounding wilderness. The map documents the overlap of three major managed landscapes: the Targhee National Forest, Caribou National Forest, and Bridger National Forest. Notable peaks like Bitters Peak and carved features such as Grand Canyon and Grand Valley define the verticality of the terrain. For those tracing the evolution of regional recreation and infrastructure, labels like Alpine Hot Springs and Nelson Ln provide specific points of reference for local development near the state line.
