Grand Teton National Park

After driving all day from Moab, Utah to Wyoming, we spent two full and amazing days in Grand Teton National Park. While similar in beauty to the mountains we saw in CO, the jaggedness of the Teton range sets them apart hugely. We enjoyed a day long hike which brought us up to Inspiration Point for great views of Jenny Lake, and then continued up through a canyon that cut two of the peaks. There were several lakes near our campsite that not only made for great photos but a fun bout of canoeing and even a showering hole!



This moose, and two of his friends, welcomed us to the Grand Tetons. They grazed right up to our campsite the first night while we ate dinner.

When I see the pics, I think that you have just seen the most beautiful views of our country and then the next set is equally or more beautiful!!!!! All I can say is, "WOW, it's all sooo breath-taking.
