About this map

Grand Targhee Resort sits at the edge of Ricks Basin, marking a period of expansion for mountain recreation on the western slopes of the Teton Range. This 1968 field survey documents the infrastructure of the burgeoning ski area on Freds Mountain, showing the original Ski Lift and parking area during the resort's early years. The surrounding landscape, protected within the Targhee National Forest and the boundary of Grand Teton National Park, is defined by high alpine basins and deep glacial drainages.
