Jackson Lake Dam Details
Jackson Lake Dam has stunning scenery along the lakeshore, where there are picnic tables. It is the outlet of Jackson Lake into the Snake River, and in the spring and early the site for controlling the flow of the river as the snow melt flows out of the mountains and into the lake. The Teton Park Road passes right over the dam.
