About this map

Doubletop Peak and the high ridges of the Gros Ventre Range dominate this 1960s wilderness survey along the border of Teton and Sublette counties. The landscape is defined by its dramatic verticality, where the headwaters of the Dell Creek and Shoal Creek systems emerge from high alpine basins. Notable water features include the remote Brewster Lake in the north and the tiered drops of Shoal Falls and West Dell Falls.

A network of narrow transportation corridors, primarily marked as Pack Trail and Jeep Trail, provides the only access through this backcountry. The map captures the meeting of two major federal land tracts, Teton National Forest and Bridger National Forest. Local character is evident in curiously named landforms like Tin Can Park and Deer Ridge, as well as mineral-related features like the Sulphur Spring.
