Okay, here's a destination guide for Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, optimized for tourists, with the intent that it would be sized for a large format output (4037 x 3040 pixels). This guide focuses on providing key information, stunning visuals, and practical tips. Since I can't create a true visual document, I will outline the sections and content, providing suggestions for images, layout, and callouts. Imagine this as a storyboard for a designer to create the actual document.
