A few miles south of Yellowstone is Grand Teton National Park, set aside by the government in 1929. Grand Teton and the surrounding country have many distinctive features.

Grand Teton is noted for its mountain grandeur. Many of its jagged, towering peaks of granite rear their heads upward 10 to 13 thousand or more feet. In many respects they resemble the famed Alps of Europe.

Lying at the base of these towering spires are lakes of sapphire-blue, and round about are forests and verdant meadowlands.

Here the visitor feels the tang of the Old West. Central lodges and sleeping cabins are available. Safe saddle trails reach out in all directions.

Motorboats and rowboats as well as trusty saddle ponies may be rented at nominal charges.
