Scenic Lakes and Ponds
This collection features diverse glacial and tectonic water bodies within Grand Teton National Park. It includes the massive Jackson Lake reservoir, enlarged by a 1911 dam, and smaller alpine tarns like Lake of the Crags and Ramshead Lake situated in high hanging canyons. Lower elevation sites like Swan Lake and Heron Pond provide critical habitats for trumpeter swans and great blue herons. From the shallow, clear waters of String Lake to the remote high-altitude Marion Lake on the Teton Crest Trail, these sites illustrate the region's complex hydrology.

Waterfalls and Glaciers
Grand Teton National Park features several alpine glaciers and cascading waterfalls shaped by tectonic activity and ice age carving. This collection includes the Skillet Glacier on Mount Moran, known for its distinctive frying-pan shape, and the Schoolroom Glacier, which displays classic features like a terminal moraine and proglacial lake. Waterfalls such as Shoshoko and Cleft Falls are fed by seasonal snowmelt and glacial runoff, cutting through ancient Precambrian gneiss and granite within the park's rugged canyon systems.
