Labor Day itself. We're wondering if we'll have trouble finding campsites at the Tetons. After a nice sunrise, we traveled south west towards the Tetons. On the way we passed a lovely hot springs called Thermopolis and stopped for a good ole stinky swim.
 |
| Sunrise through the net |
 |
| Looks like some weather up ahead. |
 |
| Yeah, we had weather. |
 |
| Snow! |
 |
| Some snowflakes |
 |
| Little snow patches at this pass |
 |
| Melted quickly though |
 |
| A lake along the way... |
 |
| Thermopolis pleasures |
 |
| The air was cool (we weren't too far from that snow earlier) so the warm water was wonderful. |
 |
| The indoor pools - looking right |
 |
| Looking left |
 |
| Outdoor water slide. You climb up the hill and there's a sign that tells you to come down once the previous person has passed a certain spot. Love it! |
 |
| One down |
 |
| Next one |
 |
| At the bottom of this indoor slide (I hated it - almost suffocated ha ha), you're told to pull on the rope and that lets the person at the top know they can come down. |
 |
| Leaving Thermopolis, bipassing Riverton, through Dubois and on to the Tetons. |
 |
| We followed this river out of the canyon |
 |
| Another fun tunnel. Toot, toot! |
 |
| Oops, another one. |
 |
| They have big cows in the west! |
 |
| Driving through town. |
 |
| Ahh, the Tetons at last. |
 |
| After we settled in the Colter Bay campsite, we walked on down to Jackson Lake for some evening shots. No problem finding a campsite here but not a free-for-all by any means! |
 |
| God made all this for you! (I found some chalk!) |
 |
| C was our fire builder tonight. Look at that bonfire! Thanks to a dead tree S cut up for us we had a nice supply of dry wood. |
 |
| You can be proud, pathfinder! |
 |
| Our site in the tall pine/fir trees. Lots of little ground squirrels and chipmunks scampering about looking for tidbits. |
