Today was a very good day. We made a group trip to the grocery store for some provisions in the morning. Then we packed all 14 of us and our gear into the van for a trek to Grand Teton National Park. The park entrance is just a few miles north of town, but we traveled further up the park road, stopping along the way to take in the sights, and eventually making our way to the North Jenny Lake Junction. From there, all of us went for a great hike to Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point. The picture of the group was taken just below the falls. From left to right are: Leslie, Jake, Kate, Lisa, Dan, Val, Amanda, Beth, Klair, Kacy, John, Drew and Tom. The weather changed dramatically throughout the day, which is typical in the Rockies, but never threatened to rain. After our hike, we drove along the Moose-Wilson road to Teton Village for a nice group dinner at the infamous Mangy Moose in Teton Village. We were fortunate to catch some great views of wildlife in the area today including: moose, coyote, elk, marmot, and osprey. Supposedly, were going to get some heavy weather tomorrow, so we're planning to do a tour of town in the morning and begin processing our abundant photos in the afternoon at the Center for the Arts. Hope all is well in your world.
