About this map

Buffalo Fork meanders across this Teton County landscape, creating a wide valley floor defined by Turpin Meadow and Fourmile Meadow. At the edge of the Teton Wilderness, the remote Turpin Meadow Lodge serves as a lone outpost near a historic monument. The terrain rises sharply to the south toward Rosies Ridge and the high summit of Baldy Mountain, where the forest service maintains a repeater and water tank infrastructure.

Transportation through this high country is marked by the junction at Hatchet and the small settlement of Blackrock along Blackrock Creek. Further south, the landscape softens into Sagebrush Flat and the drainages of Spread Creek and Skull Creek. This 1990s revision reflects the managed wilderness character of the area, noting specific landmarks like the Gravel Pit and scattered mountain lakes including Marys Lake and Lily Lake.
