My biggest reflection with Grand Teton National Park was that we didn’t spend enough time. A day – long as it was – wasn’t enough to do it justice.
The landscape at Grand Teton is exactly as you draw landscapes as a kid. Triangular mountains, trees, and water.
That image is by an unknown professional photographer.
Here’s one from my phone camera. Check out those beautiful triangles.
The Grand Teton National Park is a beautiful advertisement for the importance of the National Park system. The views of the Teton range are breathtaking, the hikes are picturesque, and the air smells fresh. We experienced a magical moment when we were on the banks of one of the lakes. A family of otters began swimming around. With the gorgeous mountains and glaciers as the backdrop, bright green waters, and beautiful trees, it felt surreal.
We went to the Grand Tetons as part of our trip to Yellowstone. As many do. One day wasn’t enough – we’ll fix that next time.
