Stop 1

Stop 2

Mormon Row is a historic district located in Grand Teton National Park and is a popular destination for visitors to see and photograph the iconic Moulton barns. The area is named after the Mormon settlers who established homesteads there in the late 19th century. The district is a significant example of early homesteading and the Mormon influence on the region's settlement and irrigation systems.

Across the valley, the Teton Range rises abruptly from the valley with no foothills to obscure your view. Glaciers lie sheltered on the northeastern flanks of the highest peaks including the Middle Teton and Teton glaciers. Climate change is causing these glaciers to retreat. Smaller glaciers are retreating more rapidly than larger glaciers. Along the valley floor, conifer and cottonwood trees line the Snake River as it cuts through the sagebrush flats.

4
Stop 4

Schwabacher’s Landing is a spot on the Snake River, almost exactly east of Grand Teton, where the terrain flattens out and allows easy access to the river. There is a dirt road coming off the main highway and down to various trailheads.

This is a launch site on the River for anglers and river rafters and is one of America’s most spectacular viewpoints.

While there are countless breathtaking views of the Teton Range throughout the park, Oxbow Bend is one of the most iconic. A channel of the Snake River "bends" towards the turnout with the water often reflecting the towering Mount Moran in the background. Year-round, this location provides stunning views of scenery AND wildlife. Trumpeter swans, otters, beavers, and bears are some of the animals occasionally seen from this turnout.

Willow Flats in Grand Teton National Park offers both beautiful scenery and excellent wildlife viewing opportunities, particularly for those interested in seeing moose, elk, and various bird species.
