Visitor Centers at Moose, Jenny Lake, Colter Bay and Flagg Ranch provide accessible restrooms, TDD, parking spaces, curb cuts and entrances. Restrooms and exhibits at Colter Bay may require assistance. View the Accessibility brochure for detailed information. We are currently updating our brochure and hope to have a new version available online during the winter of 2008-2009. TDD is (307) 739-3400.

Many accessible interpretive activities are listed in the park newspaper, the Teewinot. Campgrounds at Gros Ventre, Jenny Lake (partially accessible restrooms) and Colter Bay (partially accessible restrooms) are located on relatively flat terrain. Lizard Creek and Signal Mountain campgrounds are hilly and access is more difficult. Inquire for most accessible sites. Eight campsites along Grassy Lake Road, west of Flagg Ranch, provide easy access by vehicle and accessible vault toilets. Camping and RV sites at Flagg Ranch provide accessible facilities.

All lodging facilities provide some units that are accessible. Please contact the facility for assistance and reservations. Restaurants with accessible facilities are located at Flagg Ranch, Leeks Marina, Jackson Lake Lodge and Jenny Lake Lodge.

Some hiking trails are accessible, with asphalt surfaces, appropriate grades and good views. Many trails are steep and are not ADA accessible. Valley floor elevations vary from 6,400 feet to 7,200 feet. Wayside exhibits and overlooks have curb cuts and designated parking.

Did You Know?
Did you know that lodgepole pine trees grow on glacial moraines in Jackson Hole? Glacial moraines are ridges of rocky debris left behind as Ice Age glaciers melted. The soil on these ridges retains moisture and is more hospitable to trees than the cobbly, porous soil on the outwash plain.
