Grand Tetons and Jellystone

[Sharpienads]

Mrs Sharpienads and I took a little trip to Grand Teton National Park and Jellystone (Yellowstone) last week. Man, the Tetons are awesome. I've never seen anything like them. I could just stare at them all day. Anyway, picture thread, so here you go:

Makes me homesick! I grew up on the west side of the Tetons , beautiful area of the country. Those are some great shots too!

The Tetons and Jackson Hole area are magnificient. Wish I could find a job up there, I'd be there tomorrow.

[Ah Pook]

I really like that area. Thanks for sharing.

Why do you think they named them "Grand Tetons"? assuming you know the etymology of the word....

Great photos of a magnificent place.

We did that trip two years ago. Freaking amazing!

Tetons/Yellystone is great anytime of the year, in the winter they take on a whole new dynamic.

I'll be there in 3 weeks

Be carefully... Lots of people have been getting sick up there lately.

Amazing scenery. I've only seen it from the air but want to see it from ground level.

Yes they do. Grew up skiing tar ghee twice a week, and in recent years riding sleds right up to the wilderness. Snow piles up deep back in some of those canyons!

I've been going to the Jackson Hill Climbs since '94, got friends in Alpine riden there a bunch and on Togowee. And you're right about snow stacking up, I've seen it snow 3ft over night.
Got family in Lander which is nice to break up the drive and a place to stay when the hiway gets closed.
