One of the most SCENIC routes would be north through Utahs highway 12 through the Grand Staircase Escalante and end up going through Vernal Utah. From Vernal take highway 191 north through the Flaming Gorge rec area (one of the unspoiled wilderness areas left). This would bring you out near Rock Springs Wyoming and it's a straight shot to the Tetons from there.
Keep in mind this is not the EASIEST route to follow nor is it the fastest but we've always considered the TRIP to be as important as the destination. LOTS of mountain driving so if this isn't your comfort zone, just take the Interstate but the back roads are certainly worth the extra time and effort.
Good luck and have a great trip / Skip
