Old
Faithful;
and stay in marvelous historic lodges like the
Old Faithful Inn
and the rambling
Lake Hotel.

Grand Teton National Park
Grand Teton packs a punch, particularly when it comes to
mountain splendor.
Twelve
peaks in the Teton Range soar above 12,000 feet. While there are only 100 miles of roads
in the park, there are twice as many
miles of trails,
leaving hikers endless options for ad-
venture. Favorite landmarks include picturesque
Jenny Lake,
vast
Jackson Lake,
drive-
to-the-summit
Signal Mountain,
and serene
Oxbow Bend.
