Mind-blowing beauty like the kind pictured in today's image is one reason people keep coming back to Wyoming, US, and the Grand Teton National Park. Named 'les trois tétons' by early French trappers, the Grand Teton National Park was created in 1929 by conservationists including John D. Rockefeller Jr. The park is home to a virtually untouched ecosystem of plants and animals, such as grizzly bears, wolves, bison, moose and bald eagles.

Just 16 kilometres south of Yellowstone National Park, the park's 64-kilometre-long Teton Range is one of North America's youngest mountain ranges. At less than 10 million years old, erosion has had little geological time to smooth the edges of the mountains, hence the Tetons' jagged peaks. Like its peaks, many of the park's lakes, including the 24-kilometre-long Jackson Lake, were carved out by glaciers hundreds of thousands of years ago. Towering over the Jackson Hole valley and reflected in one of its many lakes, the Tetons and the park are a sight to behold.
