Teton backpack

Jolie and I did a 5 day backpack along the Teton Crest Trail from Moose Creek to south fork teton campground. This is the first day in Moose Creek Meadow. We had great weather and great campsites.

Sunrise from our first camp along Moose Creek

Second camp near Fox Creek Pass - smoke from Oregon and Washington fires created the hazy background in front of the Grand Teton.

Our 3rd and 4th nights was spend at Basin Lakes - we had a great secluded campsite away from the numerous groups that camped in this area. This is view of Buck Mountain at sunset

Sunset over the "Wedge" from our campsite

Sunrise over Mirror Lake - really that is the name of the lake - wonder why?

We did a day hike over Hurricane Pass into Grand Teton National Park. This is Schoolroom glacier and the meltwater pool from the glacier.

Best wildflowers we saw all trip below Hurricane Pass

Our last lunch on a beautiful granite outcrop looking towards the Wedge and Devils staircase
