Grand Teton National Park, Sept 17

This was our first clear view of the Teton range, driving north from Jackson, WY.

The view from the east shore of Jenny Lake. In the middle is cascade canyon, carved by glaciers. Mount St. John (11430') is on the right and Teewinot Mountain (12325') is on the left. Teewinot was the Shoshone name for the range; it means "many pinnacles.".

This is the Teton Range viewed from the Snake River Overlook (you can see the river in the foreground). I have had an Ansel Adams print of this exact spot since I was in college, and it provided the inspiration for this trip.

Happy Birthday, Deandra!
