Menors Ferry is located north of Jackson Hole, Wyoming in the Grand Teton National Park. Bill Menor left Ohio and settled at the present location along the Snake River in 1892. He built his cabin, a general store and a ferry to cross the Snake River. His brother lived across the river and built a limekiln operation. In 1918 Bill sold his operation to Maud Noble. Maud had her cabin relocated to the property, set up a meeting with the local prominent individuals which launched the Grand Teton National Park. An Episcopal church was built in 1925 called the Chapel of Transfiguration. It offered spiritual refreshment for the dude ranchers and visitors. Currently there are services held on Sunday's during the summer months.
