About this map

The Gros Ventre Range dominates this mid-century survey of the high Wyoming backcountry, straddling the boundary between Teton and Sublette Counties. This is a landscape defined by verticality and hydrological headwaters, where the Teton National Forest meets the Bridger National Forest. The map documents a complex system of drainages, including the sources of Shoal Creek, Dell Creek, and Tosi Creek, which have carved out distinctive terrain features like Tin Can Park and Deer Ridge.

Notable landmarks for navigation and survey include the prominent Doubletop Peak, Palmer Peak, and Eagle Peak. Remote water features such as Brewster Lake and the dramatic Shoal Falls are reached only by a network of established Pack Trails and occasional Jeep Trails. The presence of a Sulphur Spring and several named draws like Parody Draw and Mill Draw suggest a landscape used historically for seasonal grazing and wilderness traverse before modern infrastructure reached these high elevations.
