About this map

The Continental Divide cuts through this high-altitude landscape in the mid-1950s, defining the boundary between the Teton National Forest and Shoshone National Forest. This region is characterized by a network of wilderness routes, including the Pack Trail and Du Noir Trail, which provide access to remote mountain features like Jules Bowl and the dramatic Pinnacle Buttes.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with high alpine basins containing Angle Lakes, Rainbow Lake, and Brooks Lake. The drainage patterns are clearly marked by the South Fork Buffalo Fork and Du Noir Creek. Notable grazing and transition areas such as Pendergraft Meadows and Dundee Meadows suggest the seasonal use of these high meadows within the larger forest management area during the post-war era.
