This homestead once belonged to William D. (Bill) Menor. He moved from Montana to the valley in 1894 and took up this homestead on the banks of the Snake River. His ferry became a vital crossing point for the early Jackson Hole settlers. In addition to the whitewashed cabin, general store, storage shed and smokehouse, the Menor homestead once included barns, a blacksmith shop, a garden, and irrigated hayfields and pastures. Take a self-guided walk through the area to learn some of the history of Jackson Hole and Grand Teton National Park.
