2015 Map of Flagg Ranch

About this map

Flagg Ranch serves as a central point in this transition between major wilderness preserves, where the Snake River winds southward toward the northern reaches of Jackson Lake. This 2015 survey documents the overlapping boundaries of the Grand Teton National Park, the Teton National Forest, and the John D Rockefeller Junior Memorial Parkway. The landscape is defined by its thermal features and sharp elevation changes, notably Huckleberry Hot Springs and the prominent peak of Steamboat Mtn. Historic backcountry access is traced through the Berry Creek Trail and Owl Creek Trail, while numerous drainages like Polecat Creek, Lizard Cr, and Arizona Cr feed the larger river system. The map illustrates a high-altitude wilderness managed through complex federal jurisdictions during the mid-2010s.
