About this map

The Gros Ventre Range dominates this corner of Wyoming, where high-altitude ridges and deep drainages define the landscape. The northern boundary is marked by the Snake River Headwaters Wild and Scenic River as it enters Grand Teton National Park, while the National Elk Refuge occupies the western slopes. This area serves as a critical corridor between protected federal lands, including the Teton National Forest.

Significant elevations are reached at Sheep Mtn and Table Mtn, providing a dramatic backdrop to the alpine waters of Blue Miner Lake. The transport network is sparse, primarily consisting of the Flat Creek Rd and several backcountry paths such as the Dry Hollow Trl and Goodwin Lake Trl. These routes follow natural breaks like Long Hollow and Dry Hollow, illustrating how the physical geography of the Teton region has dictated movement and land use for decades.
