The Grand Tetons

Our last day in Yellowstone we decided to travel to the nearby Teton National Park for a closer look at the giant mountains and glacial lakes. It was extremely cold so instead of hiking around Jenny Lake we took a boat ride across it. Then we hiked up to Hidden Falls (I got to test out the waterproofness of my hiking boots while climbing rocks near the river!) Next we climbed the steep trail up to Inspiration Point. Here, the view above the lake, forests, and fields was awesome! At the very top we got caught in a snowstorm (which later turned to sleet) so we decided our hiking for the day was finished! We drove some scenic dirt roads requiring 4WD through the mountains which was an adventure in itself! At one point we came to a stream that Brandon was totally convinced we could cross in the truck. (Meanwhile I had visions of drowning and being swept away down stream) Halfway submerged, we finally opted out of that adventure due to the creek's rising water level from the afternoon storms. Instead, we drove through Antelope Flats (which by the way was completely VOID of any antelope!) but abundant with yellow dandelions as far as the eye could see!
