1968 Map of Moran

About this map

Snake River hydrology and early cattle ranching culture define this 1968 landscape within Grand Teton National Park. The map documents a critical period of park management, showing the infrastructure of the Jackson Lake Dam alongside legacy working landscapes like the Triangle X Ranch, Moose Head Ranch, and Wolff Ranch. The braiding of the river through Jackson Hole is captured in detail, from the iconic Oxbow Bend down to Deadmans Bar. This survey serves as a vital record for genealogists and local historians tracking the transition from frontier homesteads to federal preservation, featuring the Cunningham Cabin (Historic Site) and the original settlement of Moran near the confluence of the Buffalo Fork. It further details mid-century tourism facilities such as the Signal Mtn Lodge and various overlooks along the Teton Park Road.
