description Grand Teton National Park Overview
Grand Teton's dramatic, jagged mountain range rises abruptly from the valley floor, creating one of the most photogenic skylines in America. The park offers exceptional wildlife viewing, with moose, bison, and bears commonly seen. Activities are diverse: scenic boat rides on Jenny Lake, world-class fly fishing on the Snake River, and challenging alpine climbs on the Cathedral Group. Its connection to the John D.
Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway leads seamlessly to Yellowstone, but the Tetons stand alone with a more intimate, rugged feel. It's a park for purists who love mountains, lakes, and pristine valleys.
