Grand Teton National Park

JACKSON LAKE AND THE TETONS

Grand Tetons, the view was breathtaking over and over again!

COULTER BAY 

Doane Peak, 11,355 feet in elevation.

AMAZING view of the bay from our trailer!

Nez Perce Peak, Middle Teton, Grand Teton, and Mount Owen.

We stayed at Colter Bay Village RV Park while we explored Grand Teton National Park.

As we drove along this corridor, I'm not sure if I found the Tetons or the changing leaves more beautiful!

Mount Moran, 12,605 feet in elevation.

Took a little side road and saw this coyote hunting.

Arnica

Jenny Lake and Teewinot Mountain.

CHAPEL OF THE TRANSFIGURATION 

This small Episcopal chapel was built in 1925 near Moose, Wyoming in the Grand Tetons.  Services are still held on Sundays during the summer.

The chapel was built to frame this view of the Cathedral Group of the Teton Range.

Grand Teton, 13,775 feet.

Mount Moran with its distinctive basalt intrusion known as the "Black Dike".

JACKSON HOLE

We stayed right in the middle of town at the Virginian Lodge RV Park.

There are four antler arches, one at each corner of George Washington Memorial Park or more commonly know as Jackson's Town Square.

GROS VENTRE CAMPGROUND

Who knew that some moose were camped at Gros Ventre?

Never did get a good view of the bull but both the cow and calf made themselves visible at different times.

GROS VENTRE SLIDE

Gros Ventre Landslide occurred in 1925 following a heavy snow melt, rains, and earthquake tremors.  50,000,000 cubic yards of rock slid down the north face of Sheep Mountain, crossed over the Gros Ventre River and 300 feet up the opposite mountain.

Lower Slide Lake was created when the landslide created a dam blocking the Gros Ventre River.

MORMON ROW HISTORIC DISTRICT

T.A. Mouton barn, the most photographed barn in the world.  Who keeps those statistics?

Barn door

The Peach House was built of stucco by John Moulton.

This little cabin and outhouse sit behind the pink stucco house on Mormon Row.
