Description
We're in Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming, and have spent the day driving around in this beautiful landscape. Our last stop of the day was along the shore of Jackson Lake, where we sat on a log enjoying the scenery. The surface level of the lake is posted as 6,772 feet above sea level, and those peaks are right around 13,000 feet. I can't imagine canoeing at that elevation, but was happy to watch someone else out there having fun. :)
As an interesting side note, when we were in Idaho a week or so ago, we saw this mountain range from the other side. I got a picture out the window, and if I think of it, I'll show it to you.
Tomorrow we head east a bit. We'll probably be in Wyoming for another week or two before moving on through Nebraska and into Kansas.

Beautiful shot - looks like you waited for the rowboat to get into just the right position to balance your composition perfectly. Sounds like you're having a great trip...

Beautiful!
Now, for some reason, those mountains are not too threatening..maybe because there is light coming through the gap, indicating a means of escape if needed!

What a beautiful lake view! I find the little island at the back interesting. I do miss the mountains, but not the cold winters that goes with them. How lucky you and Bill are to see these majestic mountain views, Tara.

Wonderful view, Tara.. Oh, now when you are soon in Nebraska, please say hello to my distant cousin, who lived there most of his life ;-) His father (a brother to my gr father), moved to Usa before ww2. My father was a ship's cook and was stuck in Boston a year before WW2 ended. Just telling ya :)
