The National Park Story in Pictures

Grand Teton NP

VIEW FROM LOUNGE, NEW JACKSON LAKE LODGE, Grand Teton National Park. Dedicated in June 1955 to public use, Jackson Lake Lodge is part of a $6 million development by a Rockefeller-financed corporation that will operate on a non-profit distributing basis. The Lodge and adjacent guest cottages have approximately 350 guest rooms and provision to add 200 more.

Also in the plan, and under construction, is a "lakeside tourist village" at Colter Bay that will provide camps, automobile campgrounds, a trailer court, cafeteria service, stores, and other essential facilities.

The Government's part in this development was the provision of roads and utilities at a cost of more than $1 million. (Photograph by Bert L. Brown.)
