Jackson Hole & the Tetons

   
 Teton Pass overlooking the valley where Jackson, Wyoming is located.
 Archway of antlers in Jackson.  The Boy Scouts raise money by colleting these elk antlers and selling them.
 Jenny Lake in Grand Teton National Park.
 Raft trip down the Snake River.  We saw several eagles perched in the trees along the way.
 Read, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable about the Park.  Bit of trivia:  John D. Rockefeller managed to acquire a lot of the land in the valley below the Tetons and donated it to our government to make it part of the National Grand Teton Park.
 This moose was hanging out in Moose Junction in the park.  Guess he thought it was named for him for a reason, so might as well claim this spot on the Snake River.
