1996 Map of Munger Mountain

About this map

The Snake River carves through this Teton County landscape, marking a central corridor for recreation and infrastructure in the mid-1990s. Near the river's bend, Astoria Mineral Hot Springs and the settlement of Hoback serve as focal points for local history and community life. The terrain is largely defined by the overlapping boundaries of the Teton National Forest and the Targhee National Forest, including the Palisades Snake River Wilderness Study Area. Industrial and utilitarian activity is evident through the presence of a Rock Quarry, a Gravel Pit, and a Bureau of Public Roads Camp. Remote infrastructure is further represented by a high-elevation Lookout on Munger Mountain and a Landing Strip situated near Fall Creek, highlighting the region's reliance on both aviation and rugged access routes like the numerous 4wd tracks.
