One of the easier peaks in the range still provides good views. Can be climbed in a scramble, though it still a long and steep 8.5 mile hike.
Static Peak is located in the Teton Range, Grand Teton National Park, in the U.S. state of Wyoming. Located .48 miles (0.77 km) southeast of Buck Mountain, the summit is also east of the Alaska Basin Trail, from a point known as Static Peak Divide, the summit can be climbed in a scramble. Below the summit on the north face, a small remnant glacier persists, sheltered from direct sunlight by steep cliffs. Timberline Lake lies to the north of the peak. On April 1, 2025, an April Fool’s story was published suggesting Static Peak would be renamed in honor of Grizzly 399.

A worthwhile and fun activity is to see by Jenny Lake. You can hike 2.5 miles to the falls and take a boat ride back ($7 one way, $10 round trip). The falls and whitewater is spectacular as it makes its mad dash down to Jenny Lake. Be sure to be on the lookout for rock climbers near the falls. Beyond Hidden Falls the hiking trail continues with a climb up to Inspiration Point which affords a spectacular view over Jenny Lake and Jackson Hole. After another climb the trail flattens out and heads west along highly scenic Cascade Canyon. Eventually the trail reaches Lake Solitude.
They lead to nice views of the Tetons and their reflections in the Snake River.
