1996 Map of Whetstone Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Whetstone Mountain and the high ridges of the Teton Range anchor this mid-1990s survey of Wyoming's protected wildlands. The map documents a critical intersection of federal jurisdictions where the Grand Teton National Park boundary meets the Teton National Forest and the strictly protected Teton Wilderness. Human presence is concentrated at the Pacific Creek Ranger Station, while the southern portion of the sheet shows the northern reaches of the National Buffalo Range. The hydrological landscape is defined by the headwaters of Pilgrim Creek and Pacific Creek, alongside the notable Two Ocean Ditches. This topography illustrates the complex management of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, showing established backcountry routes like the Whetstone Creek Trail and Pacific Creek Trail that provide the only access through these roadless areas.
