About this map

The Winegar Hole Wilderness and Targhee National Forest dominate this borderland where Idaho meets Wyoming. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its extensive drainage networks, where Fall River and its numerous tributaries like Boone Creek and Conant Creek carve through the terrain. The map reveals a complex system of remote mountain meadows and high-water lakes, including Putney Meadows, Long Meadows, and Indian Lake.

Human passage through this backcountry is primarily marked by the Ashton-Flagg Ranch Rd and a network of trails such as the Jackass Loop and Bitch Creek Trl. The geography is dotted with several notable landmarks, from the dramatic Sheep Falls on the Fall River to the clustered Chain Lakes. This document captures the intersection of Fremont County, Idaho, and Teton County, Wyoming, as it remains a dedicated wilderness and forest reserve.
