1965 Map of Turquoise Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Gros Ventre Range dominates this mid-1960s study, showcasing a landscape defined by high-elevation water bodies and a sparse network of mountain transit. At the heart of the Teton National Forest lies the secluded Turquoise Lake, while Goodwin Lake sits further west near the northern reaches of Granite Creek. This era of backcountry management is marked by the presence of a Ski Cabin and a system of non-motorized infrastructure, including the long-distance Highline Trail and several pack trails that follow drainage systems like Little Granite Creek and Flat Creek. Significant peaks such as Cache Peak and Pinnacle Peak serve as primary landmarks for navigation through the mountainous terrain of Teton. The map captures the area just before the increasing influence of modern wilderness management, documenting the established foot and stock paths used by foresters and early recreationists.
