1902 Map of Mt Leidy

About this map

The Continental Divide zigzags across this high-elevation landscape, forming the spine between the Wind River and the extensive watershed of the Buffalo Fork. Surveyed in 1899, this area within the Teton Forest Reserve and the Yellowstone Park Forest Reserve is defined by its complex drainage systems and prominent peaks like Mt. Leidy and Lava Mt.. The map documents early mountain transit points such as Twogwotee Pass and Bear Cub Pass, while the lower elevations feature named clearings like Dick Turpin Meadow and Blackrock Meadows.
