Description
For Grand Teton National Park, this year has, to put it bluntly, been crazy busy.
In September the park counted 570,584 visitors, the second-highest tally for that month in park history. Notably, it pushed the park's year-to-date visitation to 3,493,937, a record for an entire year, and with October, November, and December to go.
Grand Teton Superintendent Chip Jenkins discusses the impacts of that visitation.
