The Grand Tetons

If’n, you’re looking for a higher possibility of seeing awesome mammals, then the Tetons is the place you want to go. C’mon inside and see!

There are more photos I could have shown everyone. Very near Mormon Row I got some shots of some antelope. Near the Shane Cabins I got some shots of an immature male and female Big Horn Sheep. And some shots of Ravens and other birds, more landscape photos, panoramas and such. But you have to go right into the really great stuff you capture in an attempt to hook those you’re telling and get them motivated to go and visit the place your talking about. I’m not promising anyone anything, in terms of what you may or may not see, and you may have a completely different experience that we had. If you’re a hiker/backpacker, you could very well see animals that may be a bit more shy in their relation to humans. Bears, for instance. They have been seen, I think more in the Yellowstone area than the Tetons, but the possibility is there to see one. I even saw a fox and a coyote. If you intend on going, then I would go with a plan in mind. Since there is so much to see in BOTH places, make a list of the, CAN’T MISS and MUST SEES. But then freestyle before, during or after those. Most of the mammal photos I shot were during some freestyle driving. Also, take a trip into Jackson Hole and check it out as well. There are some restaurants that have venison and bison on the menu. If you’re never tried them, I highly recommend you do so. I’ve seen elk on menus as well. All sorts of tourist trap souvenir shops, photography studios, ice cream/candy stores, clothing…I don’t believe you would want for anything after a visit to Jackson Hole. You can even hire guides to take you around see/do different things. A guide for all situations is available in Jackson Hole.

I hope you enjoyed the last 2 weeks visiting Yellowstone and the Tetons with me. I hope everyone enjoys a wonderful holiday and stays safe, happy and healthy this weekend. Until the next time, the last posting for 2021, I hope your travels are safe and wonderful!
