2017 Map of Mount Bannon

About this map

Targhee National Forest and Grand Teton National Park meet along the dramatic crest of the Teton Range on this survey. The terrain is defined by extreme vertical relief and high-altitude drainage systems, including the headwaters of Darby Cr, Fox Cr, and Roaring Cr. Numerous named peaks dominate the skyline, such as Mt Bannon, Mt Jedediah Smith, and Mt Meek, which sit near the steep descent of the Devil's Staircase. The map reveals a complex alpine environment of deep canyons, including Death Canyon and Teton Canyon, separated by high passes like Fox Creek Pass. Remote water bodies such as Pass Lake, Indian Lake, and the poetically named Forget-me-not Lakes are tucked into the high basins, accessible only by backcountry trails like the S Teton / Buck Mt. Pass.
