About this map

Freezeout Lake dominates this Teton County landscape, where an intricate system of managed water bodies and irrigation infrastructure defines the local geography. The map reveals the functional organization of the wetlands, identifying Pond Number One through Pond Number Six, which work in tandem with the Cascade Canal and the North Supply Ditch to move water through this arid region. The high ground is marked by prominent landmarks like Priest Butte in the northwest and Moehler Hill to the south.

Settlement patterns follow the established transportation corridors, with Eastham Junction and Bole serving as the primary named locales. The terrain is deeply etched by numerous coulees, such as Crossen Coulee and Floweree Coulee, which channel seasonal runoff toward the central lake basin. This survey provides a clear view of the rural grid-road system and the vital relationship between the natural topography and the artificial flumes and ditches necessary for agricultural life.
