Like the shot is famous, or the Tetons are famous?

The shot is famous, I believe. There's a spot where you can stop here that marks where Ansel Adams took a famous black and white photo of the Tetons. If you Google "Ansel Adams Grand Tetons" it'll pop up.

Hello there! Thanks for checking out my photo, I took this with my Canon R6. I took this a few years ago in 2021 when I was roaming around Wyoming with some photography friends. Got so many beautiful photos during this trip that I still regularly go back to.

If you want to see more of my work, check me out on Instagram, Vero, or BeHance:

Nice! I have also taken this same photo from the same spot just a few years back. It’s a rite of passage I think for anyone who loves photography and the outdoors. Hope you got some shots of the Mormon barns also, my friend. I’ll be back there this summer, but with kids in tow. Let’s see if they’re willing to get up at 4:00 AM to listen to dad bitch about exposure issues.

Was out in Grand/Tetons Yellowstone 5-6 years ago its an amazing area to visit if you ever get a chance. As you drive to Jackson Hole from Grand Teton's National Park there is a good sized sign on the side of the road with a pull off.

Any idea on how high that mountain is from the cameras level?

The Snake River Overlook is between 6,800 and 7,000 feet and Grand Teton reaches a height of 13.775 feet.

I was "stuck" at the Grand Tetons for a couple extra days than planned because Yellowstone flooded the day before we were supposed to arrive (yes, that flood). Our one night stay turned to a three night. So glad the lodge in the Tetons was able to accommodate us because it ended up being such a wonderful experience. Yellowstone is so hyped up, for good reasons, but I really had let that hype overshadow the beauty that was the Tetons.

Kinda reminds me of “God’s Thumb” from Holes. Brilliant shot!

Can a guy get down to the river in that spot or is it private or otherwise inaccessible?
