	Grand Teton NP: A Place Called Jackson Hole (Chapter 1)
		The Teton Range and Jackson Hole are in the Middle Rocky Mountain Province, characterized as "an assortment of different kinds of mountains with differing trends and semiarid intermontane basins." [1] The Jackson Hole area divides two very different geophysic provinces: the Wyoming Basin to the southeast and the Columbia River Plateau to the west.
		At an elevation of 13,770 feet, the Grand Teton pierces the sky, a sharp alpine peak that anchors the range.
		The soils of Jackson Hole and the Teton Range are divided into four primary groups: soils of mountains and foothills; soils of foothills, buttes, and glacial moraines; soils of terraces and alluvial fans; and soils of the floodplains.

		The Tetons are one of the youngest ranges in the Rocky Mountains, forming along the Teton Fault as a result of crustal extension.
		The Tetons are predominantly composed of Precambrian granite and gneiss.
		The ruggedness of the range is due to the carving action of glacial ice that occurred during the Pleistocene ice ages, forming the classic arêtes, cirques, and horns.

	NPS: Nature & Science» Geology Resources Division
		The Teton Range consists of a core of igneous and metamorphic Precambrian rocks overlain in most of the range by westward dipping sedimentary Paleozoic rocks.
		Shallow seas that covered the Teton region 600 million to 65 million years ago have left sedimentary formations, still visible at the north and south ends of the Teton Range and also on the west slope of the mountains.
		The peaks of the Teton Range became more jagged from frost-wedging, where water freezing in the rocks exerted a prying force, eventually chiseling the rocks free, leaving the sharp ridges and pinnacles seen today.

	Grand Teton National Park Information Page
		Grand Teton National Park was established to protect the area's spectacular scenic values, as characterized by the geologic features of the Teton Range and Jackson Hole, and the native plant and animal life.
		The report stated that adding part of the Tetons, Jackson Lake, and headwaters of the Snake River to Yellowstone National Park is "one of seven urgent needs facing the Park Service." Mather and Albright worked with the Wyoming congressional delegation to draft a bill addressing expansion of Yellowstone's boundaries into the Teton country.
		The Creation of Grand Teton National Park was written in January 2000 by Jackie Skaggs, 50th Anniversary Coordinator, with research, references, and quotations taken from A Place Called Jackson Hole by John Daugherty, Park Historian 1980-1991 and from Crucible For Conservation by Robert Righter, currently research professor of history at Southern Methodist University in Texas.

		In my opinion the Grand Teton National Park is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the USA and Canada.
		Your first view of the jagged Tetons, regardless of whether you are heading north from Jackson, travelling south from Yellowstone National Park, or heading west on US26/US287 from Dubois over the Togwotee pass, is an unforgettable experience.
		Be sure not to by-pass the Tetons on the way to Yellowstone - this park is definitely well worth fully exploring in its own right and it deserves the time to do this properly.

	Bob Smith: Research (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The total stratigraphic offset of the Teton fault is estimated to be 6 to 9 km.
		An area of unusual topographic subsidence, up to 26 m, was located 0.5 to 2 km east of the central part of the Teton fault and is similar to a pattern of down-to-west tilt of the valley floor against the Teton fault in the southern Jackson Hole.
		To assess the contemporary deformation of the Teton fault, a 22 km-long profile of 50 precisely surveyed benchmarks was established across the Teton fault in 1988 and surveyed in 1988 and 1989 in a cooperative project with the University of California, Santa Barbara.

		The Tetons are the youngest of the Rocky Mountain Range, yet display some of North America's oldest rocks.
		The erosion caused by eons of glaciation along with the rise of the range itself have created an environment in which plants thrive, ranging from green riparian land cover to sagebrush flats, lodgepole pine and spruce forests, alpine stone fields, and subalpine meadows.

		The Teton Range is the focal point of the park, the youngest range in the Rocky Mountains.

		The park’s boundaries extend from the pastoral ranchlands of Buffalo Valley in the east to the western slope of the Teton Range in the west, and from the sagebrush flats near the Gros Ventre River in the south all the way up to the Yellowstone Park entrance 56 miles north of the town of Jackson.
		Grand Teton National Park's trademark is the jaggedly impressive Teton Range that dominates your view to the west from nearly any vantage point within the park.
		Grand Teton National Park is also home to moose, bison, elk, mule deer, coyotes, mountain lions, pronghorn antelope, fl bears and the rare grizzly bear – this bear with a distinctive shoulder hump just behind its head as it gallops on all fours is more commonly seen in Yellowstone Park to the north.

	Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The rise of the Teton Range as well as the erosion caused by eons of glaciation have created the conditions that allow several plant communities to thrive, from ribbons of green riparian plants bordering rivers and streams, to sagebrush flats, lodgepole pine and spruce forests, subalpine meadows and alpine stone fields.
		With the establishment of Grand Teton National Park in 1929, and later additions in 1950, culminating in today's park, a wide variety of resources are protected for future generations.
		Grand Teton National Park and the John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Memorial Parkway offer a variety of activities from traditional mountain park hiking, walking, wildlife viewing, photography, backpacking, camping, climbing and fishing to swimming, boating, floating, canoeing, biking and skiing, snowshoeing and snowmobiling in the winter.

	GRAND TETON Level Line
		This strain field would load the east-dipping Teton normal fault in contraction, implying that the regional stress field was compressional against the fault at the time of the 2000 GPS survey.
		The return of the 2001 leveling signal to pre-1997 values suggests that the strain reversed, and that the 1997 leveling anomaly was a contractile strain transient that passed across the fault probably between 1995 when the strain pattern at Yellowstone caldera changed and the 2000 GPS survey, but before the 2001 leveling.
		The fault is depicted as the vertical dashed line - the Teton Range (footwall) is west of the fault, the north part of Jackson Hole (hanging wall) is east of the fault.
