Trail description
A steep climb in Grand Teton National Park from the Death Canyon trailhead past the Phelps Lake overlook into Death Canyon and up many switchbacks to Static Peak Divide, a high saddle below Static Peak. The trail gains well over 1,000 m. The trail climbs above 3,000 m, so take it slowly if you are not used to the altitude. Bears live here, so carry bear spray.
