Description
This glacier carved trail spans from Moose Wilson Rd at ~6,400' all the way to ~8,900', and terminates at an intersection with
Fox Creek Pass. From the trailhead on the road, head past the
Teton Village Trail and enter Granite Canyon proper. From the canyon entrance, the trail ascends at a steady rate, passing
South Fork Granite Canyon on the left, and
Open Canyon on the right.
Granite Canyon follows Granite Creek all the way up to the beautiful alpine Marion Lake, if you take a right on
Fox Creek Pass. Many people choose to pitch a tent here, and enjoy a night in the mountains before either returning to their car, or continuing along the
Teton Crest Trail on
Fox Creek Pass to
Death Canyon Shelf.
To make this journey a little more manageable, many visitors will ride the famous Jackson Tram to the top of
Rendezvous Mountain, down its namesake trail, and right onto
South Fork Granite Canyon to connect to Granite Canyon.
