Family Overview: Grand Teton National Park and Jackson, Wyoming

Grand Teton National Park's tooth-edged, snowcapped mountains, rising as high as 13,770 feet, fulfill all visions of the rugged and beautiful West. The Gros Ventre and Shoshoni tribes called the 40-mile range Teewinot, or "many pinnacles," a beauty that's surprisingly often bypassed en route to more famous and more crowded Yellowstone National Park to the north. In summer, enjoy hiking quiet trails, floating down the Snake River, and canoeing on pristine lakes, all the while delighting in the dramatic views of glacial peaks and frequent sightings of moose, deer, and elk.Read More
