Grand Teton National Park is home to so much more than remarkable mountains, alpine lakes, and gorgeous, rocky trails. If you spend some time exploring the outskirts of the park, you’ll find historic homesteads, buildings, cabins, and even a beautiful chapel! Of all of the landmarks in the area, though, the most photographed spot in Wyoming is likely down on Mormon Row. The T.A. Moulton and John Moulton barns, which you can find along the Antelope Flats section of the Jackson Hole Valley, are the most photographed barns in the entire country.

When Thomas Alma Moulton first created a homestead in an area now known as Antelope Flats, it was 1908 and he was looking for a spot for his brother to settle with him after moving along from Idaho.

The Moultons didn't stay here full time, though, and continued to head back to their family in Idaho for the first few years, to escape the brutal winters. In 1912, he married, and his wife Lucille settled with him on Mormon Row for the rest of their lives.
