Jenny Lake

Wyoming · 6–30.5 m

A glacial lake in Grand Teton National Park at about 6,783 feet elevation, one of only two lakes in the park where scuba diving is permitted (the other is Jackson Lake). Divers can descend into an underwater forest of trees deposited by shoreline landslides, reaching down to about 100 feet, with the dramatic Teton range as a backdrop. Boat access from the West Shore Boat Dock area is used to reach the dive zone, and water temperatures around 40F require a drysuit.
