1968 Map of Mount Moran

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Grand Teton National Park dominates this late-1960s topographic study, showcasing a high-altitude landscape of ice and stone before the modern era of backcountry management. The sheet is defined by the massive presence of Mount Moran, flanked by the Triple Glaciers, Skillet Glacier, and Falling Ice Glacier. These ice bodies represent a critical snapshot of the Teton Range's glacial extent during this period. For those tracing the history of alpine recreation, the map documents established routes like the Paintbrush Divide Trail and the remote Cascade Ranger Sta. The topography transitions from the waters of Moran Bay on Jackson Lake through deep incisions like Leigh Canyon and Valhalla Canyon. Unique markers such as The Wigwams and Symmetry Spire provide reference points for climbers and surveyors, while the western edge reveals the boundary with Targhee National Forest along the drainage of North Fork Teton Creek.
