Grand Teton Climbers' Ranch
Located a mere three miles south of Jenny Lake and four miles north of the Park Headquarters in Moose (Google Maps), the Grand Teton Climbers' Ranch offers the most affordable and accessible lodging for climbers visiting Grand Teton National Park. Formerly the Double Diamond Ranch, the AAC was granted a concessionaire's permit in 1970 to operate the Climbers' Ranch to provide mountaineers and their families with overnight accommodations without the congestion and time limitations of public campgrounds. You'll find a lot of logistics information here, but also check out the Friends of the GTCR website for updates and information.
