1996 Map of Joy Peak

About this map

Teton Wilderness and the Teton National Forest dominate this 1996 survey, which documents a high-altitude landscape defined by glacial lakes and the headwaters of the Buffalo Fork. The map centers on the sharp relief of Joy Peak and Soda Mountain, surrounded by a network of drainage systems including Clear Creek and the Soda Fork. This era of the late twentieth century reflects a landscape managed for conservation and wilderness preservation, where human presence is largely limited to a sparse network of mapped trails.
