About this map

Gravel Peak dominates this Teton County landscape, where high-altitude water systems and remote outposts define the character of the terrain. The 2012 survey highlights the isolated nature of the region, featuring the Fox Park Patrol Cabin near Fox Park Flat in the north and the Gravel Creek Patrol Cabin to the southwest. These structures serve as critical waypoints in a roadless area crisscrossed by numerous seasonal streams and named tributaries.

Drainage patterns are intricate, with the Snake River flowing through the northeastern corner and Pacific Creek winding through the southeast. High-mountain hydrology is represented by smaller bodies of water such as Emerald Lake and Gravel Lake. The distribution of these water sources, including Mink Creek and Wolverine Creek, suggests a landscape primarily utilized for conservation and seasonal wilderness management rather than permanent settlement.
