“A beaver towing a branch in autumn may be carrying its winter food supply. In cold places, beavers store branches underwater near their lodge, anchoring them in the mud.”

East Boundary Turnout is a roadside stop at Grand Teton's eastern boundary, marked by a large timber-framed park sign with the Teton Range beyond. For visitors arriving from Dubois, Lander or Riverton, it makes a natural first pause, and the information signs and map help you get oriented before Moran Junction. Wheelchair accessibility is listed, but the route surface and layout aren't described.

Frame the sign and rangeThe wooden boundary sign and the Teton peaks are the main draw.

The wooden boundary sign and the Teton peaks are the main draw. Keep them together in the picture; the view and marker make this a distinctly Grand Teton welcome rather than just another roadside pullout.

Plan the turn at MoranMoran Junction is about two miles ahead.

Moran Junction is about two miles ahead. From there, the turn toward Jackson Lake Junction and Teton Park Road goes through the entrance station; the north route leads toward Yellowstone's south entrance, while continuing south takes you toward Moose Junction and Jackson.
