Grand Teton National Park

Grand Teton National Park was established twice:  in 1929 to protect the majestic peaks and in 1950 it was expanded to included the valleys below.  It is just 10 miles south of Yellowstone National Park and worth the drive.

We crossed the Continental Divide and saw lots of snow on the side of the road and the rivers were full.

We had a picnic lunch along the road with these beauties in the background.

We drove the length of the park, north to south passing Jackson Lake, Jenny Lake and down to Moose Junction.

It was another gorgeous day of mountain beauty.  At the southern end of the park lies Jackson Hole, Wyoming.  We stopped and walked around.

Seems like a high-end ski town without the snow at the moment.  So there are a number of hiking, biking mountain climbing guided tours.

We scaled the mountain through Teton Pass and looked back on Jackson Hole below.

The rest of the way home was mostly uneventful except for our descent down the mountain with 10% grades!

We loved our time in Grand Teton National Park and recommend it.  It was a fun day.

Thanks for joining us on the Roadrunner Chronicles.  Until next time...
