The town of Grovant, was settled in the late 1800s by hardy Mormons homesteading as a group from Provo, UT. The area we now know as Mormon Row has several surviving barns and homesteads which have become very popular for visitors and photographers visiting Grand Teton National Park. The barns are busy in the fall when photo workshops invade the valley. There are a few other barns in the park, but these are the most convenient. They are located in a well positioned area of the park with paved roads. A few years ago, the park added a much needed rest room. I stopped there often as I criss-crossed the valley.
Mormon Row is open to the public year around, but easy access ends around the middle of December. Antelope Flats road is gated at each end following the end of the Elk Reduction Program. The Park Service plows Antelope Flats Road for the hunters but not for photographers and tourists through the winter season.
Panoramas
The Mormon Row barns and structures make great panos, especially when the Teton Range is visible behind them! The barns are popular with the night time light painters, whether is is legal or not!
