Yellowstone Drive

I have never been to Yellowstone, so Bekki and I took a couple day trip through the park. Lots of driving, but it was neat to see.

The "Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone" was my favorite place,

 specifically sitting on some rocks at Inspiration Point.

We ended up camping outside the park, a few miles from Gardiner, MT in Yankee Jim Canyon. We had a great campsite and good weather.
 A quick stop at Mammouth Hotsprings, then down to see Old Faithful, and finally out the West Entrance and back to Jackson through Idaho.


Leaving through the West Entrance was kind of special because it meant driving through some areas I rode through last year on my Great Divide Mountain Bike trip.

Munger Mountain MTB

I checked out some more mountain bike trails, this time at Munger Mountain / Red Top Meadows. The trails were really nice, and well made.

The flowers are starting to bloom. Apparently wild flower season around here is beautiful.

 One more place in Jackson with endless views.


And then we were riding through an Aspen forest.

Trout Fishing at Jackson Lake

Today I went fishing on Jackson Lake with my housemate and a friend of his who was in town for the weekend.  The fishing started a little slow, but we were the only ones on the lake, and the views of the Teton's were incredible.


Eventually the fishing picked up, and we each caught one.

We cleaned and took home all three and had a pretty killer dinner!
