Surprise Lake, Teton National Park. Wyoming
Eric and I ventured up to the Tetons a couple of weekends ago. We grabbed our gear and headed into "bear country". The hike was up to a beautiful lake. It was pretty steep and long, so we were exhausted when we got to camp. We made a simple yet tasty dinner next to the lake as the sun set, and then crawled into our sleeping bags around 8:30. We haven't been to bed that early for years... and it was sooo nice. Woke before the sun broke over the peaks and headed up to another lake in the quiet morning. We were suddenly surrounded by deer- they didn't seem to care we were there. It was so peaceful to be high up in the mountains and enjoy all the surroundings with E.roy. I felt completely recharged.
Jackson was/is always a fun spot to hang out. We explored it for an evening and then went river rafting down the Snake the next day. It was a delightful trip. (glad we didn't run into any bears).
