About this map

The Snake River flows through the Grand Canyon of Wyoming in this mid-1990s revision, marking a dramatic intersection of water and mountain terrain. In the northern reaches, the Greys River joins the Snake at a point surrounded by several Forest Service recreation sites, including Pine Bar Camp and East Table Creek Camp. The landscape is largely defined by public land management, spanning the Targhee National Forest and the Bridger National Forest, with a significant portion dedicated to the Palisades Wilderness Study Area.

A network of drainage systems like Station Creek and Bailey Creek feed into the main river arteries, while the southern portion is dominated by the high elevations of Elk Mountain and Middle Ridge. Human activity is concentrated along the river corridor, evidenced by a Ranger Station, a Gravel Pit, and the Greys River Road, which provides the primary access route through this section of the canyon.
