On our last day of vacation, we drove back from Yellowstone National Park to Grand Teton National Park. The next morning, we were to fly back home from Jackson Hole, Wyoming, which is just south of the park.

This image was taken on the access road to the Grand Teton National Park. In the center is Grand Teton Mountain.
The original Grand Teton National Park was established by Congress on February 29, 1929.
The birth of present-day Grand Teton National Park involved controversy and a struggle that lasted several decades. Animosity toward expanding governmental control and a perceived loss of individual freedoms fueled anti-park sentiments in Jackson Hole that nearly derailed establishment of the park. By contrast, Yellowstone National Park benefited from an expedient and near universal agreement for its creation in 1872. The world's first national park took only two years from idea to reality; however Grand Teton National Park evolved through a burdensome process requiring three separate governmental acts and a series of compromises with land owners and ranchers.
