The Grand Tetons. If Kirsten's and Ryan's wedding was the heart of our trip, our time in the Grand Tetons was the soul. The three days we spent in the park was the stuff lifetime memories are made of. We stayed at the beautiful old Jackson Lake Lodge inside the park, in a small room right out of the 1960s. No TV, no air conditioning, no frills. The setting was amazing though - here it is from a distance, built on a bluff with a view of the mountains (see above) beyond the Jackson Lake flats where grizzlies and elk were spotted nightly.
We swam in Jackson Lake...
...hiked to Inspiration Point for a view of Jenny Lake and the other side of Jackson Hole...
...after our hot and dusty 5 mile hike we were rewarded with a jewel of a lake that we had all to ourselves (String Lake)...

...later we saw a mom and baby moose cross the road right in front of us...
...and we spent our evenings at the lodge marveling at the amazing view that our camera could not hope to capture adequately, looking for grizzlies, and swatting mosquitos.
