About this map

Freezout Lake State Game Management Area dominates this landscape in Teton County, showcasing a complex of managed waterways including Freezout Lake, Davis Lake, and several numbered ponds. The 1980s terrain is characterized by alkaline basins and human-engineered water controls, visible in the extensive Road on Levee system and the North Supply Ditch. Notable elevation points like Priest Butte and Moehler Hill rise above the Alkali Flat and Roundup Coulee, providing significant landmarks in this wetland environment.

Transportation history is evident along the northwestern corridor near Eastham Junction, where an Old R.R. Grade parallels the modern roadway. This intersection of rail history and water management defines the region, with the small settlement of Bole situated to the northeast. The presence of a Gravel Pit and various irrigation features illustrates the intersection of local industry and the specialized ecology of the Priest Butte Lakes area.
