About this map

Grand Teton National Park defines this 2017 landscape, showcasing the iconic glacial lakes and dramatic topography of western Wyoming. The map captures the transition from the aquatic expanse of Jackson Lake in the north to the smaller, more intimate basins of Leigh Lake, String Lake, and the namesake Jenny Lake. Major geological and recreational landmarks such as Inspiration Point and Hanging Canyon are clearly documented alongside the complex network of islands, including Elk Island and Marie Island.

Transportation through the valley floor is centered on the Teton Park Road and the Jenny Lake Loop, which skirt the eastern edges of the lake system. The southeastern portion of the map covers a section of Jackson Hole where the Snake River flows through the alluvial plain. High-altitude details like Ribbon Cascade and the steep walls of Snowshoe Canyon reflect the intense elevation changes characteristic of this portion of the Teton Range.
