Grand Teton National Park offers the climber an array of climbing types, positions, settings and conditions. There's everything from two-pitch sunny crag adventures to mixed alpine endurance testpieces. A more detailed description of the climbing character can be found in the descriptions of each area.

Grand Teton National Park is located about 10 miles north of Jackson, WY. Directions to specific trailheads can be found in the individual areas.

When visiting the Tetons, you might want to check out some of the other local climbing. The nearby climbing generally has less of a commitment factor, and is good for "rest" days or in questionable weather. Check out the Jackson Hole section for information on other climbing in the area.

If the weather goes south but you still want to climb, be sure to check out Jackson Hole's new climbing gym at the Rec center moonboard, bouldering and ropes. A pass gets you access to everything else the rec has to offer. The Teton Rock Gym in Driggs, Idaho is the closest on the Idaho side and is a true gym with boards, hangboards, bouldering and ropes.
