Grand Teton National Park
Ansel Adams stood here in 1942 and took this photograph of the vast unspoiled beauty of the Snake River and jagged Teton Range. The National Park Service hired Adams in 1941 to capture nature as exemplified by national parks. At the time local ranchers were battling a proposal to include the Jackson Hole valley in Grand Teton National Park. Adams's photographs helped promote and protect western U.S.landscapes.The grand lift of the Tetons is . . . a primal gesture of the Earth beneath a greater sky. Ansel Adams| HM Number | HM1NOM |
