1970 Map of Thorofare Plateau

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Teton National Forest encompasses this high-elevation wilderness in Wyoming, where the high terrain of the Thorofare Plateau dominates the landscape. The region is defined by its deep drainages and steep ridges, most notably the towering Thunder Mountain in the southern portion of the quadrangle. As a protected part of the Teton Wilderness, the map reveals an environment untouched by modernization, relying entirely on a network of established routes like the (Pack) Trail and various other marked Trail paths for navigation. These primitive routes follow the natural contours of the land, connecting the headwaters of major systems such as Thorofare Creek and the North Fork Yellowstone River. The map provides a detailed look at the drainage patterns of several tributaries including Hidden Creek, Elk Creek, and Battle Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology that feeds into the Yellowstone river system.
