Cottonwood Creek Overlook
in
Grand Teton

A popular fall photograph captures the Jimmy Manges cabin, the park stock used by the summer trial crew, the aspens turning golden and the Grand Teton towering above. A corral is a classic buck and rail fence used by the early homesteaders. Enjoy the view of the horses and mules, but please do not feed them or touch them. Manges' cabin is thought to be the first two story cabin in the valley. The turnout also includes the Cottonwood Creek Picnic area and a vault toilet. The multi-use pathway also passes by the turnout.
