Can You Name All The Peaks Of The Tetons?
Don t be embarrassed! Even if you were born and raised in Wyoming many people have never even thought that each of the peaks of the Grand Tetons had their own name. About the only people who know them are a few who work for the park service, at the Tetons, and some rock climbers. Maybe a photographer or two.
Don t worry, each peak did not get its name in the same way the entire mountain chain did. It was some French-Canadian trappers who gave the mountain range the bawdy name of “Grand Tetons,” meaning “big breasts” in French. Yeah, leave it to the French. But, still, it s French. Doesn t it sound romantic?
