Established in 1929, Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming, USA, protects and displays the breathtaking Teton Range. The efforts made to preserve this extraordinary landscape are chronicled in its history. Locals and early 20th-century environmentalists saw the significance of the Tetons and worked to have them protected.

John D. Rockefeller Jr. played a crucial role in 1943 by contributing large tracts of property, which sped up the process of creating the park. This generous deed did a lot to protect the area’s natural splendor and wildlife habitats.

The park is a great place to go hiking, rock climbing, and watching wildlife. The stunning scenery is the result of the contrast between the rugged mountains and the peaceful lakes and valleys. Together, preservationists’ vision and community action have kept Grand Teton a wilderness treasure for future generations to enjoy.
