No Wonder!

When Mitch Geriminsky and I were exploring Grand Teton National Park, we were looking around for a place to stop at for breakfast.

One of the first places we stopped at was the Jenny Lake Lodge. Since the park's guide sheet indicated there's a restaurant there, we went inside. There, we had a bit of "sticker shock" to find that breakfasts there were $34.00 per person.

We said, "Thanks, but no thanks!" and we left. We ended up having breakfast at the Signal Mountain Lodge. Their prices were much more reasonable.

On Jenny Lake Lodge, Wikipedia says this:

Jenny Lake Lodge is a luxury resort concession in Grand Teton National Park. Located close to the base of the Teton Range at Jenny Lake, the resort as operated since the 1920s, when Tony Grace established the Danny Ranch, a dude ranch, on the site, with two rental cabins.. The ranch was purchased by the Snake River Land Company, which made improvements starting around 1933, under the auspices of its operating company, the Teton Investment Company. The ranch's lodge burned in 1935, but a new lodge was built, accompanied by enough cabins to accommodate 65 guests.

"Luxury resort concession". That explains the price. 

As far as national park lodges go, I have to admit that Jenny Lake Lodge is a nice one. It's just out of my price range.
