1965 Map of Whetstone Mountain

About this map

Teton Wilderness and the Teton National Forest dominate this mid-1960s survey, showing a landscape defined by its primitive backcountry routes and high-elevation drainages. The map centers on the dramatic Whetstone Mountain and the surrounding watersheds where the Pacific Creek and Atlantic Creek carve through the Teton range. This area is historically significant as part of the Continental Divide's hydrological network, where several major pack trails, including the Pacific Creek Trail and the West Cutoff (Pack) Trail, provide the only infrastructure through the dense terrain.
