Grand Teton mountain ranges
Grand Teton National Park is located in northwestern Wyoming. The park includes the major peaks of the
64-km long Teton Range as well as most of the northern sections of a valley known as Jackson Hole. Only
16 kms south of Yellow-stone National Park, the two parks are connected by the National Park Service
managed John Rockefeller Memorial Parkway. These three protected areas in conjunction with surrounding
National Forests constitute the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, which is one of the largest intact mid-latitude
temperate ecosystems in the world.

ジャクソンホ−ル国際空港に着陸する直前に見る雄大なティートン連峰の眺めは世界でも三番目に素晴らしいとの
評価もあるほど、見逃すことが出来ないものである。空港からは用意されていた新車、ジープに乗り換えグランド
ティトン国立公園、ジャクソンロッジに向けて北上する。
グランド・ティートン国立公園は その山の美しさで良く知られている。高さ 4,197 m のグランドティートンを
中心に 標高 3,600 m を超える 12 の山でティートン連峰 を形成している。イエローストーン国立公園の南に位置し、
ここには エルク、ムース、バイソン、熊、イーグルなどの野生動物が 生息しており、イエローストーン同様、
動物と自然の宝庫としても知られている。筆者は50年前の1962年を最初に、この地を過去3回ほど訪れているが、
人であふれる初夏の華やかさ、人影もなく紅葉した葉が落ち行く初秋のわびしさ、いずれの季節もすばらしい。
私にとって50年目に当たる今年、2012年にはロッジもよく整備されていた。環境もよく、2011年にはIMF総会が
宿泊したロッジで開催されたこともうなずける。ロックフェラー・パークウエイを北に走るとイエローストーン
