Yellowstone & Grand Teton NP - "Grand Teton National Park" (PDF Chapter) Lonely Planet
Rough-cut summits rising sharply from a lush valley floor: the Tetons are a sight to behold. For lovers of alpine scenery, the Tetons’ visual impact far exceeds that of Yellowstone. Whichever way you wander, these rock spires exercise a magnetic attraction on your gaze. Simply put, it is sublime and crazy terrain, crowned by the dagger-edged Grand (13,770ft), a giant in the history of American mountaineering. But there’s much more, from sagebrush flats and wildflower meadows to the hundreds of alpine lakes and fragrant forests trodden by bear, moose, grouse and marmot.
Coverage includes: Sights, John D Rockefeller Jr Memorial Parkway, Colter Bay Region, The Eastern Slopes, Central Tetons, Moose-Wilson Road, Driving, Day Hikes, Overnight Hikes.
