Did you go with a scout group?

How did you manage vehicles between your starting point and ending point?  We plan to use a single van but don't want to make a loop.  Probably cover most of the Teton Crest.  From what I read the Death Canyon Shelf is a must.

 

I did not go with a scout group. Because I did not go with Scouts, we hitchhiked from our ending destination to our starting point. That meant that our car was waiting for us at the end. 

 

Death Canyon Shelf was awesome. I liked Alaska Basin as well. Paintbrush Canyon was a bit of a disappointment, most of the flowers had already died by early September. Highlight of the trip was Avalanche pass. It is what remains of the original Teton Crest trail, and it runs right by the Teton teton mountain's summits. 

 

Not sure about camping options. We stayed at a hotel in Salt Lake City, drove straight to the tetons the next morning, hiked for 4 days, then we straight back to SLC. I imagine there are front country camping near Jenny Lake, but I can't tell you for certain.
