... on the walls) to set up some viewing appointments for the next week. As upsetting as this was at the time, it allowed us to see one of the most beautiful sunsets we have ever seen over the Teton range. <br><br>Thursday we woke up and took the water ferry across Jenny Lake to do one of the park's most popular hikes to Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point. After battling through the crowds on this two mile stretch, we went on up through ...

... Hayden Valley with sweeping views of the surrounding mountains. We stopped at Canyon Village and took a short walk to look at the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and Lower Falls, where a large waterfall dropped into a long narrow canyon with white and yellow sulfur sidewalls. Here we also got to experience the huge crowds that people complain about at Yellowstone. After the Falls we went on to the ...

... so riesig dass er nicht auf ein foto passt und die bilder der realität schlicht nicht gerecht werden. ist doch auch schön, dass nicht alles mit einer digicam aufgenommen werden kann, ich hab die bilder stattdessen mit meinen eigenen instinkten aufgenommen und kann jedem grand teton besucher nur empfehlen, den ca 1 stündigen aufstieg auf sich zu nehmen!<br>

... into the Tetons. Weather wasn't great (lots of hail and some snow) but they snagged an ascent of the Grand Teton (Petzolt Ridge to Upper Exum) and the Middle Teton (North Ridge). Definitely a fun trip for both of them despite some ...

... Old Faitfull. Echter de daarna volgende splitsing gingen we rechts in plaats van links, richting het zuiden. We reden ongeveer een kwartier toen we plotseling weer op een grote verzameling auto's stuiten, omdat we onderweg edelherten en bizons hadden gezien dachten we dat dit wel weer zoiets zou zijn. Veel van die mensen komen net het park binnen en zien dit dan dus voor het eerst. Maar goed, toch maar even vragen. Alweer ...

Grand Teton was another great national park with some spectacular scenery. There was one section of the park where there must of been nearly 100 cars lined up along the side of the road to take pictures of the scenery (see one of the attached photos). <br><br ...

... we descended the difficult terrain full of cliff bands with tired knees and ankles. When we got to the lower saddle where some guided climbers were camping, it was totally dark and we didn't know where to find the fixed rope. Fortunately someone pointed ...

... do have pictures of our adventure, hence the name photo journal, but seeing that I am Hannah Hall, it has once again been revealed that I am terrible with all things electronic and the photos will have to wait. I think it's best if i leave the photos to brian and i stick to the writing: it may be a little random, but would you really expect anything less? **end ...

... all followed behind him as we went up in elevation over 2000 feet. Thank goodness it was the horses doing all the climbing! Jacob had a little difficulty getting a handle on his horse "Ace" as it seemed to have a mind of its own in the beginning of the ride. Rebekah's "Kimmie" was well behaved and Rebekah handled her very nicely. Joe's horse "Snowball" kept stopping on the way back to snack on grasses and flowers. David's horse had ...

... house on Sunday then over to my sister's and had dinner, but the mood was darkened by my worries over Tonic. I was not sure if it was her time since she is 19 years of age. I finally broke down and despite my prior decision to not take her to the vet anymore, we took her. My mom, Royce and I went to an ER vet clinic in Longmont.
