2014 Map of Cave Mountain

About this map

Lewis & Clark National Forest encompasses the majority of this territory, where the eastern front of the Rocky Mountains meets the high plains. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage network of the Teton River, including its north, middle, and south forks, which have carved deep features like Frenchy Gulf and Clary Coulee into the limestone. High-elevation landmarks such as Mt Werner and Chateau Mtn dominate the western skyline, while the transition to the plains is marked by isolated formations like Antelope Butte and Crab Butte. This 2014 survey documents the road network at the forest boundary, including Teton Canyon Rd and the Teton Canyon Loop, which provide access to geological landmarks such as Indian Head Rock and the namesake Cave Mtn. The map clearly illustrates the shift from protected national forest land to private or state-managed sections to the east.
