About this map

The Snake River carves a dominant path through the eastern portion of this 1963 survey, where the Teton National Forest and Targhee National Forest meet. This terrain is defined by its recreation and early road infrastructure, featuring the Astoria Mineral Hot Springs and the Johnny Counts Flat riverside area. Deep in the canyon country, the Bureau of Public Roads Camp and a nearby Gravel Pit suggest the active maintenance of the routes following the river's edge.

A network of pack trails, such as the Pack Trail winding through Pritchard Pass, provides access to the high peaks of Munger Mountain and Wolf Mountain. Smaller drainages like Dog Creek and Fall Creek feed into the Snake, while isolated landmarks like the Landing Strip and Cabin Creek Campground highlight how this landscape was utilized for both administrative and backcountry access during the early 1960s.
