1958 Map of Gates Park

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Lewis and Clark National Forest defines this mountain landscape, which was meticulously mapped in the late 1950s. At the heart of the quadrangle lies Gates Park, an open valley serving as a focal point for wilderness management and access. The Gates Park Guard Station and a nearby Landing Strip (Private) indicate the administrative and logistical importance of this site for the forest service and early aviators. The terrain is a complex network of drainages including the Sun River and its North Fork Sun River, which carve through the high country. Landmarks like Rabbit Butte and Goat Ridge rise above a system of established trails, such as the Pack Trail routes that navigate between Biggs Creek Flat and Ninemile Park. This survey captures the backcountry before modern expansion, where the Game Preserve Boundary and county lines between Teton and Lewis and Clark counties dictated land use.
