About this map

T L Gap serves as a prominent landmark in this section of Teton County, where the topography transitions between the high elevation of Bole Bench and the carved drainages of the Teton River valley. The landscape is defined by a series of deep coulees including Antelope Coulee, Coyote Coulee, and Government Coulee, which illustrate the complex drainage patterns feeding into the river system.

A strictly organized grid of local roads, such as Shannon Rd and several numbered routes including 16th Rd NE, bisects the terrain. These roads trace the section lines established by the Public Land Survey System, highlighting the area's history of agricultural parceling. The prominence of Teton Ridge running through the center of the sheet emphasizes the natural divide between the northern plains and the southern benches.
