String Lake, bridge
In September of 1999, a lightning strike ignited a small forest first near Hanging Canyon on the north side of Jenny Lake. As permitted in Grand Teton National Park's Fire Management Plan, the Alder Fire was managed and allowed to take the natural course in order to benefit plants, wildlife habitat, and reduce years of accumulated fuels. Some areas burned hot while others were slightly scorched.
