About this map

Hot Spring and the Granite Creek Campground define the recreational and natural landscape of this high-altitude Wyoming region during the late 1960s. Located within the Teton National Forest, the map captures a transition between the wild peaks of the Wyoming Range and early industrial exploration. Evidence of resource extraction is visible through the presence of several Oil Wells and a Mine situated near the banks of Granite Creek.

Navigation through this steep terrain is primarily via an established Pack Trail system and Jeep Trail routes, connecting prominent landmarks like The Open Door and Game Hill. The map meticulously tracks the boundary between Teton County and Sublette County, showing how these political lines intersect the natural flow of Shoal Creek and its surrounding drainages such as Jack Pine Creek and Gurden Creek.
