The drive

US 89/191 runs north from Jackson up the floor of Jackson Hole to Moran Junction, with the Teton Range across the valley for much of the way. The Snake River Overlook is the stop about halfway along.

It is 29.4 miles and about 35 minutes, with mostly gentle curves. Grand Teton National Park says wildlife can linger near park roads, so drivers should be alert and drive slowly.

This highway is plowed and open through winter from Jackson to Flagg Ranch, so it stays available when Teton Park Road closes for the season.
