Teton Crest Trail, Mountain trail in Grand Teton National Park, United States.
The 40-mile Teton Crest Trail connects multiple points through Grand Teton National Park, maintaining elevations above 8,000 feet across granite peaks and alpine meadows.
Native American tribes established seasonal hunting camps along what is now the Teton Crest Trail, utilizing the abundant natural resources of the mountain range.
The trail passes through four distinct land management areas: Jedediah Wilderness, Bridger-Teton National Forest, Caribou-Targhee National Forest, and Grand Teton National Park.
Backcountry permits for camping are required and can be reserved starting the first non-holiday Wednesday in January, with eleven designated campsites available.
The path traverses three ecological zones and circumnavigates a glacier system containing terminal moraines, crevasses, and a proglacial lake at high elevations.
