Grand Teton National Park: Overview

Sharp, steep and spectacular - the granite fantasy of climbers everywhere.

Leave it to a French-Canadian fur trapper to christen these majestic spires as colossal teats! Jutting abruptly over the sunken valley, the Tetons lord it over hundreds of alpine lakes and fragrant forests trodden by bear, moose, grouse and marmot. This is crazy, sublime and vertiginous terrain.
