THE DRIVE
Northbound out of Jackson on 191, angle the rig to the right on Gros Ventre Rd. Soon you’ll hit Antelope Flats Rd., famed as a path through knock-out scenery and Western history.

MORMON ROW
The route opens a chapter of the region’s human story: More than two dozen homesteads staked out by Latter-day Saints settlers, starting in the 1890s. A Yahtzee of vintage barns.

HOME ON THE RANGE
Eight designated dispersed, boondocking-style campsites can be found just up the road in the Antelope Springs area. Alpine Valley RV Resort, south of Jackson, offers all the mod cons.
