This photo of Jackason Lake was taken at Colter Bay Village, located inside Grand Teton National Park.
Grand Teton National Park has three main entrances: Moose Entrance, Granite Canyon Entrance, and Moran Entrance. The closest entrance to the GPS coordinates is Moran Entrance.
After you pay the entry fee and enter the park, continue driving on US Highway 191. When you see Colter Bay Village Convenience Store, turn left into Colter Bay Village Road and then turn right into Bathing Beach Road at the end of the road. There will be plenty of parking spaces where you can park your car.
