Grand Teton National Park officials are pleading with visitors not to land helicopters in the park unless they have proper authorization first after an incident last month led to new federal charges.
MOOSE, Wyoming —
The charges are in relation to an incident near Moran Bay on the southwestern corner of Jackson Lake, park officials said Monday. They said park rangers responded by boat to a report of a helicopter illegally landing in the area sometime around 3 p.m. on June 24. Federal court records show Smith is scheduled to appear in front of a federal judge next month. Court records did not indicate whether he had obtained legal representation.
