“Tails from the Tetons” Electronic Field Trip
Grand Teton National Park was featured in an Electronic Field Trip, developed as a partnership between the National Park Service, the National Park Foundation, Ball State University, and Best Buy Children’s Foundation. Anyone can participate from home or from the classroom. This program focuses on the animal communities of Grand Teton National Park and was developed for grades 3 through 8. Your class can enjoy access (fees apply to some activities) to:

-Play hi-tech, entertaining, and educational games

-Watch ‘webisodes’ on a variety of park-related topics ranging from animal tracks to geology to fire ecology

-Access teacher-created lessons and activities to use in your classroom

-View the exciting live broadcast, which aired across the country from Grand Teton National Park in October of 2007.

Mt. Moran in July  

Did You Know?
Did you know that the black stripe, or dike, on the face of Mount Moran is 150 feet wide and extends six or seven miles westward? The black dike was once molten magma that squeezed into a crack when the rocks were deep underground, and has since been lifted skyward by movement on the Teton fault.
