1964 Map of Targhee Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Continental Divide winds along the crest of the mountains here, forming the high-altitude boundary between Idaho and Montana. The 1964 field check captures this landscape before significant modern expansion, highlighting the intersection of the Targhee National Forest and Gallatin National Forest. The map centers on the strategic Targhee Pass, a vital corridor for those traveling toward the West Entrance of Yellowstone Park. Local history is anchored by the Targhee Cem near the shores of Henrys Lake, while the Lionhead Ski Area and Howard Spring Wayside reflect the mid-century development of outdoor recreation. The drainage patterns of Watkins Creek and the West Fork Targhee Creek illustrate the hydrologic significance of this high-country divide.
