Menors Ferry
For a unique experience in Grand Teton National Park, you should ride Menors Ferry across the Snake River just like the pioneers did in the 1900s. It's a ride into the past, and with such spectacular views, you simply can't pass up this opportunity at some grand sightseeing.
Only a half-mile north of Moose in Grand Teton National Park, the Snake River begs to be crossed. You can do just that on Menors Ferry. You'll be getting a glimpse of life in the Jackson Hole of the Old West.
You'll have the chance to visit Bill Menor's cabin and his country store and see the Chapel of the Transfiguration. Bill Menor came to the area in 1864 and took up his homestead beside the river, building a ferryboat that became a necessity as the years progressed. He lived on the unpopulated west side of the river, and had to travel for supplies. Others from the east side of the Snake River came over to hunt and gather food and cut timber for building. Now Menors Ferry and the cableworks across the Snake River are just replicas, but accurate ones. It's an attraction not to miss on your vacation in Grand Teton National Park.
