Part 2

_Saddle Horses_--The park saddle horse concessioner maintains an excellent string of saddle and pack horses, with good equipment for short or long trips. Saddle horses may be rented without guides, but only to ride over well-defined trails in designated areas.

_Photographs_--Up-to-date picture shops are maintained at Jenny Lake and Moran. Photographs of the surrounding country, enlargements, paintings, moving pictures, and souvenir post cards are sold. Laboratories are maintained for developing, printing, and enlarging.

The latest rates for these services, approved by the Director of the National Park Service, are on file with the superintendent and the park concessioners.

Administration

The superintendent is the representative of the National Park Service in immediate charge of the park, with offices at park headquarters. All communications regarding the park should be addressed to the Superintendent, Grand Teton National Park, Moose, Wyo.

Rangers and ranger naturalists are stationed at various locations in the park to assist in the protection of the area and to help visitors to enjoy the park and understand its natural phenomena.

Help Us Protect This Park

National parks are established "to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wildlife therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations."

Please cooperate with us in maintaining and protecting this park. The following observations are made for your guidance:

_Preservation of Natural Features and Public Buildings_--Trees, flowers, vegetation, rocks, minerals, animals, or birds may not be disturbed, injured, or destroyed, and buildings, signs, or equipment may not be defaced or destroyed. No material of any kind may be taken from the park without a written permit from the superintendent.

_Bears and Deer_--Feeding, touching, teasing, or molesting bears and deer is prohibited. Any close approach to them is dangerous.

_Camping_--Camps should be kept clean, rubbish and garbage burned, and refuse placed in cans provided for this purpose. CAMPFIRE PERMITS ARE REQUIRED for building campfires in areas outside designated campgrounds.

_Fires_--Be careful with fires at all times. Make sure your campfire is completely out before leaving it. Smoking and the building of fires may be prohibited when hazard makes such action necessary. ALL KINDS OF FIREWORKS ARE PROHIBITED.

_Fishing_--Fishing regulations are subject to change from year to year and the limit for a day's catch may vary. Learn the limit and the regulations before starting to fish in any of the park waters. Fishing in any way other than with hook and line, and with the rod or line held in hand, is prohibited. A STATE FISHING LICENSE IS REQUIRED.

_Hunting_--Public hunting within the park boundaries is not permitted and the use of firearms while in the park is prohibited except upon written orders or permission from the superintendent.

_Automobiles_--Drive carefully at all times. Speed limits are posted; these vary for different sections of the park. All accidents should be reported at the nearest ranger station. Fees for automobiles, trailers, and motorcycles are collected at the park entrances. All fees are deposited in the United States Treasury and are not available for expenditure in the park. Congressional appropriations are the only source of funds for administration and development.
