Moran Junction

Moran Junction was named for the artist Thomas Moran, a member of the Hayden exploring party. Moran was the first person to map, photograph, sketch and paint the Yellowstone Country, back in 1871. Moran Junction is the eastern entrance to the Grand Teton National Park. At Moran Junction you will find the Moran Entrance Station, where visitors can obtain park permits for both Grand Teton and Yellowstone Parks. This station is also the launch area for float trips down the Snake River.
