About this map

Targhee National Forest dominates this mountain landscape along the border of Bonneville and Teton counties, where the high peaks of the Big Hole Mountains transition into a complex network of canyons and gulches. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Stouts Mtn, Liars Peak, and Chicken Peak. Water sources are vital landmarks here, ranging from named springs like Roy Farnes Spring and McCullock Spring to the various forks of Pine Cr.

Land use patterns reveal a mix of recreational and agricultural heritage. The Pine Basin Ski Area and the West Pine Creek Girls Camp highlight the area's role in local recreation, while names like Pine Creek Bench and No Cut Timber Canyon suggest historical timber and land management practices. The density of named canyons, such as Mike Spencer Canyon and Beckman Canyon, often reflects the surnames of early settlers and homesteaders who utilized these drainages.
