Oregon Trail -  Road Trip, Biking, Hiking, Camping
Week 2  -  Friday    -  Grand Teton in Wyoming
Back To Main Oregon Trail Page

These images were taken on Thursday evening after leaving Yellowstone.
The sun was just behind the Grand Teton mountains, so I had every
intention to return on Friday to get morning and day pictures.
However, rain was expected on Friday, there was no nearby campsites,
no restaurants, hotels, nothing.  I drove 30 miles into Jackson, Wyoming
and discovered the town was very upscale "tourist", expensive, campsites closed
for the winter, and unfriendly people who could care less.
So I ate an expensive meal, left town and did not stop driving until I reached
Salt Lake City, UT.   Jackson wants your money and after that you are on your own.
Grand Teton is left alone with hardly a place to pull over to take pictures.
The park is like 30-60  minute drive that most take to get to/from Yellowstone.
It is a shame that there are no restrooms or places to eat or stay overnight nearby.
