1996 Map of Rendezvous Peak

About this map

Rendezvous Peak and the high ridges of the Teton Range dominate this 1990s landscape, where complex management boundaries intersect across the Continental Divide. The map documents a convergence of protected lands, including Grand Teton National Park, the Jedediah Smith Wilderness, and the Targhee National Forest. Evidence of early resource exploration is found at the Taylor Prospect near Taylor Basin, while a remote Patrol Cabin serves as a lone marker of human infrastructure in the backcountry. A network of high-elevation routes, such as the Teton Crest Trail and Rendezvous Trail, connects vital water sources like Moose Lake and Marion Lake. The topography is defined by significant summits including Housetop Mountain and Mount Glory, reflecting the region's importance for both conservation and alpine recreation before the turn of the twenty-first century.
