Camping Trip in Teton Park

We took a camping trip this past weekend in Teton National Park in Wyoming with our friends the Redman's who again is the family that transferred here from our division in Maine.  (Seriously who thought 2 years ago we'd be camping in Wyoming?  It still sounds weird to me)  The elevation of our camp site was 6,500ft.  The park is amazing.  Cattle are free range.. Mountains are surrounding you and the Grand Tetons are right above you.  And the best part of all  NO CELL PHONE SERVICE!!!!
This is a place you can take your teens and preteens and have their full attention at all times!!!  It's great!
The weather was perfect.  Around 65 degrees during the day when we got there.  However during the night, you would be amazed at how much and how fast the temperature drops at 6500ft.. Man i like to have froze!!  Around 6:00am Dawn jump up and said "I'm out of this ice-box, I'm going outside to make a fire so I can survive"   She was a little cold as well.  Other than the cold night we had a blast!  We will be heading there a lot in the future.  Some pictures below..



Entering the park, the first thing you realize is how close you are to the Grand Tetons.. 

Other Mtns in the area..

Darby Canyon

Several weeks ago we hiked Darby Canyon.  I finally have time to post some pictures.  Dawn is not in any pictures due to this is when she was in Georgia during the summer.

We went with the Redmans.  They are our friends who transferred here from our New England Division in Maine.
