Jackson Hole + Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming


En route to Wyoming - departing Idaho.
We departed Idaho and arrived in Jackson Hole, Wyoming in anticipation of camping in Grand Teton National Park. The town of Jackson is an old cowboy town that is now a thriving tourist center for winter and summer activities and is the gateway to Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. 
The park entrance...a thick archway of antlers - there are more arches throughout the area.
The famous Cowboy Bar.
The bar stools are saddles.
You can see the ski trails in the background.
We camped in Grand Teton for two nights and an enjoyable excursion was a boat ride ($10/per person/round trip through the Parks Service) across Jenny Lake and then a hike to see a waterfall. Basically, we buzzed around on the scooter, in and out of town, around the park, and once again saw the magnificent beauty of Mother Nature.

I took this riding on the back of our scooter.
My mantra...
 Heading to Yellowstone National Park for a few days. Ciao' for now : )
