Day 7 - May 17th
Our expedition today was to Grant Teton National Park. To my mind this is one of the most magnificent groups of mountain anywhere. I always find them to be an awesome sight. Many of the side roads and view loops were still closed due to the late snows. We did manage to see a Grizzly bear mom with her two yearling cubs as well as moose. Our travels today took us past Yellowstone Lake, an awe inspiring 136 square miles of water. Thus far all of the lakes have been frozen and displaying their coating of ice in shades of pale blue and green. We also noted some very interesting patterns of ice on these lakes.

We got snow too. Wow, huh? We wanted to see bears so badly, but didn't! I did study hard on the differences between a Black Bear and a Grizzly Bear, but didn't get to use my knowledge.
