3rd Stop, Grand Tetons NP. 48 day National Park tour.

We are staying in the Gros Ventre Campground, B Loop. This loop appears to be 3/4 full on this Saturday evening. Our first outing was stopping at the Albright View Turnout.





Next was the Teton Glacier Turnout.



A closeup view of the Glacier.



Next stop was the Jenny Lake Boat Dock to get a ride across the lake so we could hike the trail to the Hidden Falls.

The creek was running real good, so I knew the falls were going to be great.



Hidden Falls.



Next stop was the drive up Signal Mountain.







Lots more HERE and more to come. :B during the coming week.

    Thanks for the great pictures. Grand Teton is our favorite Park. Couldn't make it out there this year, but already planning for going back in 2014.

    You may find a drive down Schwabacker Road in the toad interesting.


    Schwabacker Road, Spalding Bay Road, Two Ocean Lake Road and Grassy Lake Road Campsites are closed this year because of the so called BUDGETS CUTS.

    I have seen these in years pass and will miss seeing them again this trip.

    Great pictures... thanks for posting although I'd hoped to be seeing them in person in a couple of weeks, but plans change. Hopefully next year.

    You may find a drive down Schwabacker Road in the toad interesting. There was a large beaver dam and lodge about 100 yards north of the parking area at end of the road. On calm days there are great reflections of the Tetons in the pond behind the dam and also along the trail next to the river to the north. Schwabacker Road is a short way north of Glacier View turnout on route 191. It has a very steep section down off the highway and is gravel. We haven't been down there since 2007, so don't know whether the beavers are still active.
