1965 Map of Tetonia

About this map

Teton River meanders through the western Teton Basin, creating a distinctive network of wetlands and spring-fed channels in this mid-1960s survey. The landscape is defined by its water management and transport infrastructure, featuring the Union Pacific rail line and an abandoned Old Grade that parallel the valley floor. Small agricultural settlements like Tetonia, Felt, and Badger serve as focal points for the surrounding rural community. Cultural history is preserved in several burial grounds, including the Felt Cem, Haden Cem, and Cache-Clawson Cem. The transition from the river basin to higher elevations is marked by prominent natural features such as Packsaddle and the drainage of South Leigh Creek. Numerous gravel pits and the Hog Canal reflect the local economy's reliance on the land's resources and irrigation.
