About this map

The Teton Pass serves as the central crossing point in this 2015 study of the high mountain terrain west of Wilson. This landscape is defined by the steep transition from the valley floor at Fish Creek to the high peaks of the Snake River Range, including Smoky Hollow Peak and Taylor Mtn. A complex network of historic routes and modern access points is visible, including the History Trail, Old Pass Rd, and the curiously named Heck Of A Hill Rd.

Evidence of the area's geological and human activity is scattered throughout, from the Lithium deposits and the dramatic Glory Slide to the quiet Elliott Cem near the settlement of Wilson. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns within both the Targhee National Forest and Teton National Forest, where water flows from high basins like Crater Lake through Mosquito Cr and N Fork Fall Cr.
