Salt Lake City To the Grand Tetons (Road Trip part 4)

I will let the pictures do most of the talking for what was by far the most beautiful and most exhilirating day of the entire trip for me.


We took a beautiful backroad up from Salt Lake City into Wyoming...


...swinging through a corner of Idaho on the way.


We stopped for lunch for the best pizza this side of the atlantic...


...then we headed into the storm


We stopped in Jackson at a used book store to stock up on Louis L'Amour books and then headed into...The Grand Tetons!




We didn't have a place to stay that night so we decided that we would camp out here. When we found a campsite we were greeted by one of the locals...





After setting up camp we decided to see the neighborhood a little. I really wanted to see a bison, so I was ecstatic when we saw this fella...


...then we saw his friends...





We spent the rest of the evening exploring more of the area, seeing Great Herons, a herd of elk, pronghorns and natural beauty that would blow your mind.




After the sun set we settled into our campsite, just in time for the second craziest thunderstorm of our trip. Thankfully our REI tent held up against the rain, wind and lightning.

next episode: bears, sulfur, wolves and more!
