2 Best Sights in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming

Down a path from the Chapel of the Transfiguration, the ferry on display here is not the original, but it's an accurate re-creation of the double-pontoon craft built in 1894 by Bill Menor, the first homesteader to settle on the west bank of the Snake River. That was how people crossed the Snake River before bridges were installed. Although the replica ferry is no longer in operation, it's fun to see. In the cluster of turn-of-the-20th-century buildings, there are displays on historical transportation methods. Pick up a pamphlet for a self-guided tour.

Settled by homesteaders between 1896 and 1907, this area received its name because many of them were members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as Mormons. The remaining barns, homes, and outbuildings are representative of early homesteading in the West. You can wander around, hike the row, and take photographs. The century-old T.A. Moulton Barn is said to be the most-photographed barn in the state.
