One of the camping classics in the Tetons is Leigh Lake. Located at the base of the Teton Range, it is an ideal retreat for canoe camping and enjoying water-based activities with the family. Leigh Lake is one of many glacial lakes at the base of the Teton Range and one of two you can camp at in Grand Teton National Park.

A backcountry permit is needed and camp site sizes vary from eight to twelve people. You can easily rent a canoe in the town of Jackson (Leisure Sports, Rendezvous River Sports, or Snake River Kayaking) or in Moose at Dornans (Adventure Sports).
