The JY and the Bar BC were established in 1908 and 1912, respectively. By the 1920s, dude ranch- ing made significant contributions to the valley’s economy. At this time some local residents real- ized that scenery and wildlife (especially elk) were valuable resources to be conserved rather than exploited. Evolution of a Dream The birth of present-day Grand Teton National Park involved controversy and a struggle that lasted several decades. Animosity toward expanding governmental control and a perceived loss of individual freedoms fueled anti-park senti- ments in Jackson Hole that nearly derailed estab- lishment of the park. By contrast, Yellowstone National Park benefited from an expedient and near universal agreement for its creation in 1872.

  • Pleistocene Glaciation of the Jackson Hole Area, Wyoming
    Pleistocene Glaciation of the Jackson Hole Area, Wyoming Professional Paper 1835 U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey Cover. Pinedale-1 glacial moraine deposited by the Buffalo Fork lobe of the Greater Yellowstone Glacial System that headed 50 kilometers (30 miles) to the northeast in the high Absaroka Range. The flat surface in the middle distance is the Pinedale-1 outwash terrace. On this side of this flat terrace is a deep glacial kettle formed by the melting of a large block of glacial ice buried in this outwash gravel. The distant bench is on the far side of the Snake River (not visible) and is a Pinedale-2 terrace deposited by outwash from the Yellowstone Plateau ice cap. The Teton Range forms the skyline with Grand Teton the highest peak. Although the Teton Range has dramatic glacial features, the greatest effect on the surficial geology of Jackson Hole was that produced by the large glacial lobes that advanced into Jackson Hole along the southern margin of the Greater Yellowstone Glacial System.

  • Chapter 5. Pioneering a New Course, 1945–1947
    Chapter 5. Pioneering a New Course, 1945–1947 If our future standards of living are not to be lowered painfully, if victory is not to cost us the progress of generations, this Government must take the lead in all steps that will restore and promote the development of our natural resources. It must foster and support the labor and ingenuity of scientists and technicians who can pioneer our course to new sources and uses of materials and power.1 —Oscar L. Chapman The United States emerged from World War II as the strongest nation in the world, even though its efforts toward winning the war cost $330 billion. Harry Truman asserted on September 1, 1945, that the United States held “the great- est strength and the greatest power which man has ever reached.”2 The President emphasized in an earlier speech that “[w]e all have to recognize—no matter how great our strength—that we must deny ourselves the license to do always as we please.”3 Winston Churchill observed on March 5, 1946, that the United States was now the world’s premier power, but with that power, he cautioned, came a pro- found responsibility to future generations.4 During the war years, the United States doubled its national income, wealth, and industrial production. U.S. steel output, a key indicator of industrial strength, reached in 1944 a level more than four times larger than those of the depression years, while wartime damage and scarce capital crippled the steel industries of Britain, the Soviet Union, and countries in north- western Europe and destroyed those of Germany and Japan.

This Park was established by an act of Congress on February 26, 1929.
