Grand Teton National Park, just south of Yellowstone, continues to impressed visitors with an unrivaled sight of the Teton Mountain Range. The Grand Teton, tallest of all, seemingly rises straight up, 13,770 feet from the valley floor and creates a majestic appearance.
Connecting Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks is the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Highway, creating a tribute to the generosity and vision of this philanthropist. Rockefeller has also made significant contributions to aid the Acadia, Great Smokey Mountains and Virgin Islands National Parks. Today, millions of visitors benefit from the foresight of John D. Rockefeller.
