1996 Map of Green Mountain

About this map

Green Mountain and Grouse Mountain anchor this high-altitude landscape in the mid-1990s, where the management of the Teton National Forest is defined by the Buffalo Jackson Ranger District. The terrain is shaped by a dense network of drainages, including the South Fork Spread Creek and Leidy Creek, which flow through steep valleys marked by occasional 4wd tracks. Human presence in this wilderness is minimal, centered around specialized outposts such as Cow Camp and a Corral located near the confluence of Little Bear Creek and Bear Creek. Small, high-country water bodies like Hidden Lake and Leidy Lake are tucked into the drainages of East Leidy Creek, illustrating a landscape primarily dedicated to resource management and seasonal livestock grazing rather than permanent settlement. The presence of a Drill Hole and a Repeater Link suggests the limited but vital industrial and communication infrastructure necessary for this high-country environment.
