Along The Trail At The Head Of Cascade Canyon
News and Adventure from Glacier National Park
The photo below was originally published by the U.S. Department of the Interior in a pamphlet called, Grand Teton [Wyoming] National Park. Published in 1937, the photograph appears with the title, Along The Trail At The Head Of Cascade Canyon. I could be wrong on this, but it appears the photo was taken from Jenny Lake, or possibly somewhere along the lower portions of Hanging Canyon. I believe the trail seen in this photo is either the Jenny Lake Trail or the western segment of the horse trail that links up with the Cascade Canyon Trail west of Inspiration Point. I also believe that the rock outcropping in the lower left-hand corner of the photo is Inspiration Point. Obviously the terrain around this area was much different back then. This area is mostly wooded now, which to me, makes this a pretty amazing shot:
Even as far back as 85 years ago, Cascade Canyon was considered to be a popular destination in the park. The Spring 1939 issue of Grand Teton Nature Notes reports that, “By far the most popular trail in the park is the lower portion of the Cascade Canyon Trail which leaves Jenny Lake and climbs above Hidden Falls.”
