Mount Moran, Grand Teton Nat'l Park, Wyoming    ID# 617-WY-TE-196-BW
Mount Moran, Wyoming. Few locations in North America can rival this magnificent scene as the aspen trees along Oxbow Bend on the Snake River of Grand Teton National Park take on their brilliant autumn hues. The massive bulk of Mount Moran reaches 12,605' into the Wyoming sky to the right side of this image. The Teton Range is the result of a huge block of the earth's crust being shoved skyward as an adjacent block sinks into the earth. Due to this sinking block east of the mountains and the resulting depression of the land, the Snake River has pooled at the base of Mount Moran to form Jackson Lake just upstream of here. While the summits of these peaks loom 7,000 feet above the valley floor, total displacement along this still-active fault has reached an incredible 33,000 feet. All photos in these galleries may be ordered as fine art framed prints or for stock photography usage.
