Wyoming's Grand Teton National park contains some of the world's most breathtaking scenery. Today's photo features Mount Moran, one of the Teton range's most spectacular peaks.

At 12,605 feet, Mount Moran is one of the tallest mountains in the United States. It serves as a massive backdrop to numerous water views, including this one of picturesque Jackson Lake.

In addition to the peaks of Mount Moran and Grand Teton, the park is also home to an amazing variety of wildlife including elk, pronghorn antelope, moose, mule deer, grizzlies and black bears. Over 300 species of birds can also be seen in the park, including the beloved bald eagle and peregrine falcon.
