Rockefeller Memorial Drive

On June 29th I left Yellowstone and drove south on the John D. Rockefeller Jr Memorial Parkway and arrived at the Grand Tetons National Park at 11AM. I set up camp at Colter Bay. I drove to Jenny Lake and spent the rest of the day reading and making calls. At night I had never seen so many stars in the night sky!

Teton mountains

On June 30th I did a 6 mile hike around Jenny Lake and hiked up to Inspiration Point which gave a super view of the grasslands and I later saw a powerful waterfall.

hiking the Tetons

I decided to spend the rest of the day in civilization in Jackson Hole and saw 3 movies at the theater.

On July 1st I went on another white water rafting trip. This time I went on the Snake River and it was a bit tamer than the trip in Montana.

All in all I drove 282 miles in and around the Grand Tetons National Park.
