Garnet Canyon, Mountain canyon in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, United States.
Garnet Canyon stretches through the Teton Range with steep granite walls ascending from Lupine Meadows to the peaks of Grand Teton and Mount Owen.
The canyon became part of Grand Teton National Park in 1929, leading to the development of maintained trails for climbers and hikers through its terrain.
The canyon serves as a training ground for mountaineers who practice technical climbing skills before attempting higher peaks in the Teton Range.
The trail spans 8.2 miles round trip with 2,430 feet elevation gain, requiring sturdy hiking boots and sufficient water for the 4-6 hour journey.
Beyond the Platforms Campsites at 4.2 miles, hikers encounter a substantial boulder field that demands careful navigation through massive granite blocks.
