1964 Map of Henrys Lake

About this map

Henrys Lake sits at the center of this high-elevation landscape, where the Continental Divide forms a jagged border between Idaho and Montana. The 1964 terrain reveals a specialized mountain economy of recreation and ranching, evidenced by the Island Park Golf Course and landing areas like Howard Landing Area and Big Springs Landing Area. Private holdings like Johnson Ranch and Webster Ranch are dispersed among the massive tracts of the Targhee National Forest and Gallatin National Forest. Key transit corridors are marked by Reynolds Pass and Targhee Pass, while the small settlement of Henry and the Targhee Cem provide specific points of interest for local history. The map also detail industrial footprints, such as various Gravel Pits and Borrow Pits, alongside prominent peaks like Sawtell Peak and Targhee Peak.
