The John Moulton barn is an iconic structure in Jackson Hole. The sunrise view with the barn in the foreground and the Teton Range as the backdrop is one of the most photographed structures in the valley. The remaining fences and corrals add character to the view. John Moulton and his brother Thomas Alva (T.A.) homesteaded on Mormon Row in 1908. John dry farmed grain until the state built irrigation ditches to the Mormon Row area in the late 1920s. Around that same time, John switched to dairy farming and sold his milk, cream and butter to nearby dude ranches.
