Phelps Lake
Death Canyon, which was created by glaciers around 15,000 years ago, may be reached from Phelps Lake, which is located in the southern part of the Grand Teton National Park. It is a stunning lake surrounded by mountains and trees, making it a wonderful location for pictures.
You will undoubtedly be mesmerized when you arrive by the surrounding lofty peaks and pine forests. However, the "jumping rock," which serves as a natural diving board, is what makes Phelps Lake so famous. The 300-hectare lake is nine meters below the rock, which is located on the lake's northern shore. After a strenuous hike nearby, you can enjoy jumping into the water from this rock outcropping.
Visitors must travel on foot from the Death Canyon Trailhead or the Laurance S. Rockefeller Preserve to reach the lake since there is no road access to it. The Phelps Lake Loop trek is then highly advised to take in the breathtaking vistas.
Location: Teton County, Wyoming
