Greetings from Grand Teton National Park

We went out to Wyoming for a wedding and stayed in Jackson Hole. Traveled throughout the Lower Loop of Yellowstone for a 12 hour day. Horseback riding through the Grand Tetons on our marvelous horses with our very kind and knowledgeable guide past the Ox Bow River will be a time I will treasurer forever!

Sincerely,
Toni

Grand Teton National Park

This spectacular destination preserves a dramatic stretch of the Teton Range bordering the Snake River. One of the unusual features of these distinctive mountains is the absence of foothills, meaning that there are no smaller mountains blocking the view. The park also features glacier-carved lakes, a historic district of weathered buildings made by 19th century Mormon homesteaders, and an abundance of wildlife large and small, including nearly 1,000 bison that roam the grassy fields in herds.

State(s): Wyoming

Established: 1929

“Precious spaces like the Grand Tetons, Yellowstone and The Grand Canyon are places where we can all go to breath and take in the beauty that Mother Nature bestowed on us to admire and protect for all to witness and marvel at. ”
