2011 Map of Targhee Pass

About this map

Targhee Pass serves as a critical geographic gateway on the Idaho-Montana border, where the headwaters of the Missouri and Snake River systems converge. In this 2011 landscape, the transition from the high-altitude Tygee Creek Basin to the shores of Henrys Lake is marked by a mix of recreational infrastructure and mountain terrain. Facilities like the Lionhead Ski Area and Lionshead RV Park and Campground illustrate the area's modern identity as a mountain retreat, while Sunset Lodge and Mountain Spring Ranch anchor the local settlement pattern. The map documents the drainage networks of Watkins Creek and Targhee Creek, alongside aviation and transit links such as Henrys Lake Airport and the Henrys Lake Dr corridor. High peaks including Bald Peak and Mount Two Top define the northern and southern horizons of this continental divide crossing.
