Grand Teton

  • April 15, 2012March 26, 2020

Grrr! It was a cold night! We wake up under the snow, Adie had to add many layers during the night, pants, blanket, etc. Pierre was not so warm either as the sleepingbag was crushed between his feet and the door, and was not in the best conditions to retain the warmth. So, at around 5:30 we decide to go.

We plan to sleep in a motel in Yellowstone tonight.

After a few hours, we cross the I-80, and enter a no-man’s land around Eden and Farson. The landscape is beautiful, sometimes in the sun, sometimes in a thick fog.

We arrive at Gros Ventre Wilderness and Grand Teton Natl Park. These are pretty funny names for french speaking people… Big Belly and Great Teat… Anyway very nice canyons and rivers.

After eating in Jackson we head towards the heart of Grand Teton Park, just to learn that the road towards Yellowstone is closed…We decide however to have a look at the wildlife of Grand Teton. Bisons!!! Bears!!! Mama Bear with baby bears! A park ranger is there to ensure humans and bears don’t get mixed up…

We then decide to go sleeping in Rexburg, in a Super 8 motel. The road is nice but not amazing, common crop fields. After getting the room we have a pizza at Pizza Hut, and prepare the path for tomorrow. 9:30PM we are asleep!
