What you'll see ⛰️ Summit🌄 Big views🏞️ Lake

Delta Lake is not an official park trail. A social path leaves the Amphitheater Lakes switchbacks and climbs through a boulder field to a glacially fed lake of startling turquoise, directly beneath the east face of the Grand Teton.

Tips
Unsigned, unmaintained and steep, with a genuine boulder scramble near the top - the park does not maintain or recommend it. Its popularity has badly eroded the route, so stay on the main path and do not cut switchbacks.
