1968 Map of Granite Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Targhee National Forest dominates this 1968 landscape, where high mountain ridges and deep canyons define the boundary of Grand Teton National Park. The map documents the early infrastructure of the Grand Targhee Resort, identifying its initial Ski Lift and Parking Area at the base of Freds Mountain. The drainage patterns of the high country are meticulously recorded, with Leigh Creek and its many branches like North Fork Leigh Creek carving through the terrain near Commissary Ridge and Dry Ridge. Recreation and remote encampments are well-established, evidenced by the Treasure Mountain Camp in Teton Canyon and Teton Campground along Teton Creek. A network of backcountry routes, including the North Leigh Trail and Andy Stone Trail, connects high-altitude landmarks such as Granite Basin and the Green Lakes.
