The drive

Teton Park Road runs north from Moose along the foot of the Teton Range to Jackson Lake Junction. It passes the South Jenny Lake turnoff, the Mount Moran turnout and Signal Mountain Lodge, then runs beside Jackson Lake.

It is 18.7 miles and about 30 minutes, with mostly gentle curves. The mountains carry the drive more than the bends do.

The road starts past the Moose entrance station. Grand Teton charges its own entrance fee, separate from Yellowstone's.
