About this map

Targhee National Forest dominates the high-altitude landscape of this 1943 survey, where the peaks of Garns Mtn and Piney Pk overlook a complex network of mountain drainages. The eastern portion of the map is defined by industrial extraction in the Teton Valley, where the Mikesell Mine, Pintar Mine, and Brown Bear Mine are clustered near Horseshoe Creek. To the west, the Snake River carves through the terrain, flanked by notable riverside features like Lufkin Bottom and Cistern. Evidence of local ranching and rural education persists in the canyons, including the Durant Ranch and Upper Pine Creek Sch, illustrating the sparse but vital human presence in this high-country environment before modern development. The map also delineates clear county boundaries between Madison and Teton and Teton and Bonneville counties.
