Snake River
The Snake actually starts in
Yellowstone N.P., traveling south through the John D. Rockefeller Parkway
corridor and into Grand Teton National Park. The river flows into and out
of Jackson Lake, leaving the park at its southern end. The river offers a
chance to catch (and release) the Snake River Cutthroat. The best way to
fish the portion of the river in Grand Teton is by a float trip.
Grand Teton Nat'l Park requires its own license,
companioned with a WY license. Check with the park for
regs - see
their website on fishing and floating the Snake.
