1965 Map of Bishop Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Island Park Reservoir borders the northern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where the waters are held at a spillway elevation of 6302 feet. The terrain is defined by the massive volcanic features of the Targhee National Forest, including the prominent Bishop Mountain and the distinct volcanic form of Little Butte. A lookout tower stands atop the summit of Bishop Mountain, overlooking a network of drainages such as Cooney Canyon and Green Canyon. The transition from forested ridges like Thurman Ridge to the broad expanses of North Antelope Flat and Antelope Flat highlights the diverse topography of this Fremont County region. Water management is evident throughout the dry flats, marked by the Smead Well, Sagebrush Spring Reservoir, and Wet Weather Reservoir, which supported local livestock and forest operations in the mid-1960s.
