About this map

Fall River and its numerous tributaries dominate this hydrological landscape in Teton County, Wyoming. The river system is defined by a remarkable series of cataracts, including Iris Falls, Colonnade Falls, Ouzel Falls, and Rainbow Falls, illustrating the dramatic elevation shifts within the Falls River Basin. The Bechler River winds through the northwestern corner, carving out the deep Bechler Canyon and passing through the landmark Rocky Ford.

Several remote bodies of water are distributed across the high terrain, notably Lake Wyodaho, Ranger Lake, and the cluster containing Fish Lake and Winegar Lake. While the terrain is predominantly defined by natural features like Birch Hills and Calf Creek Hill, the inclusion of Grassy Lake Rd in the southeastern quadrant provides a trace of the local transportation network through this backcountry area at the start of the twenty-first century.
