1968 Map of Grand Teton

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Grand Teton rises as the central apex of this 1968 topographic study, which documents the high-altitude landscape and evolving recreational infrastructure of the late 1960s. The map captures the meeting point of Targhee National Forest and Grand Teton National Park, revealing a network of early trails such as the Teton Crest Trail and the Death Canyon Trail. Along the eastern edge, the transition from the high peaks to the valley floor is marked by historic seasonal properties, including the White Grass Ranch, J Y Ranch, and R Lazy S Ranch. Notable glacial features like the Middle Teton Glacier and Schoolroom Glacier are shown alongside significant water bodies such as Phelps Lake and Bradley Lake. A Landing Strip near the Snake River and several ranger facilities, including the White Grass Ranger Station, illustrate the management of this wilderness area during a period of increasing public access.
