About this map

Palisades Dam stands as the engineering centerpiece of this mid-1960s landscape, holding back the massive Palisades Reservoir where the Snake River winds through the canyon. The map documents a critical infrastructure node, detailing the powerplant, substation, and the nearby Palisades Townsite. This area serves as a significant boundary between two major federal tracts, the Targhee National Forest and the Caribou National Forest, illustrating the intersection of industrial water management and wilderness preservation.
