grand teton national park backpack - August 28, 2016

We will drive up on August 28th (Sunday) and camp at the Gros Ventre campground at the south end of the Park. If we can obtain a walk-in backcountry campsite permit upon arrival for the necessary campsites, we will do most or all of the Teton Crest trail south to north from Teton Pass to String Lake, a distance of about 39 miles. The Teton Crest trail will require a shuttle. If that option is not feasible due to unavailability of backcountry campsites, we will backpack the more remote Webb Canyon-Owl Creek loop at the north end of the Park (about 41 miles). We will return sometime Labor Day weekend. Group limit of six. Registration required.
