199:: Over 1000 species of vascular plants grow in Grand Teton National Park and the surrounding area. Some trees, such as the Whitebark Pine, Limber Pine, Subalpine fir, and Engelmann Spruce can survive the cold windy slopes and alpine zone high up in the Tetons to around 10,000 feet (~3000 m). Other evergreens, like the Lodgepole Pine, Douglas Fir, and Blue Spruce, are more commonly found on the valley floor, while the aspens, cottonwoods, alders, and willows prefer the moist soils found along the rivers and lakeshores.

Jackson is just south of the
National Elk Refuge, which is just south of Grand Teton's park borders, though you have to drive a bit to get to an actual park entrance station. Said another way, the park entrance station lies several miles within park boundaries. Jackson airport also lies within park
