National Park Blog


Grand Teton National Park Jumps into the blogosphere with its online ranger station.

the site has a ton of info, including route info:
Grand Teton - Wall Street to the Upper Exum
Some snow in Wall Street gulley. Golden Staircase and Friction Pitch dry, with patches of mostly avoidable snow in sheltered zones. Axe/crampons not required. 3rd rescue on 7/8/08 was more of an assist as a 31 year old woman dislocated her jaw while yawning. No joke. Assisted down to the Lower Saddle and flown down to Lupine Meadows.
