El Parque Nacional Grand Teton anticipa su día más ajetreado el 21 de agosto de 2017. Por lo general, los usuarios del parque pueden estacionar al costado de la carretera para observar la vida silvestre y las vistas de las montañas. Para el eclipse, el parque prohíbe el estacionamiento en la carretera para la seguridad de sus visitantes. Los hombros deben permanecer abiertos para que los guardaparques y los vehículos de emergencia respondan a las emergencias. A cambio, GTNP designará áreas de observación, completas con Park Rangers y port-a-potties.
As of right now, all area lodging in the park is already booked. All park campgrounds are on a first come, first serve basis, and have limits on the number of people allowed to stay. Backcountry permits are limited (due to high demand) and the park will be checking all campers for their permits. Grand Teton National Park requests that all visitors help them ensure a successful eclipse day by following all route signs, respecting the park’s natural resources, and carrying out all trash and litter. As August is the park’s fire season, fire safety is going to be paramount in ensuring the eclipse can be enjoyed by all. The smoke from forest fires will obscure the corona during totality.
