Grand Teton National Park
Thursday, September 13, 2018
We began the day touring Jackson Hole. One of the interesting stops we made was the Mormon Row Historic District. Several Mormon families settled in the valley as homesteaders. Their farms were clustered along a stream which provided water for their livestock and crops. Several of their homes and barns are preserved and information tablets describing their lives and settlement are maintained by the park service. We made a stop at the Episcopal Chapel of the Transfiguration in which services were held for the vacationers of nearby "dude ranches". It was a quaint chapel in the middle of nowhere.
We came across Menor's Ferry and country store on the Snake River which was interesting.
