SPECTACULAR GRAND TETONS



June 24, 2013


The Majestic Tetons

Today we made the drive from Pocatello, Idaho to Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.  It's hard to describe just how beautiful this place is, and pictures don't do it justice.  We will be here for a week and since Yellowstone National Park is just a short drive from here, we'll probably do a day trip there as well.  We've already seen several eagle's nests with eagles in them and a herd of at least 100 buffalo in the park.  Eagles' nests are so easy to spot because they like to build them up high on telephone poles or on top of bare trees along a lake or river.  Tomorrow we're going to do the inner loop drive in Teton and hopefully see more wildlife and birds.  I bought a new set of binoculars to help.  We'll see Jenny Lake tomorrow and I have vivid memories of swimming in the ice cold lake as a kid.  Hopefully there will be some nice pictures to post tomorrow.
