I don’t normally like to post images of animals with their backs to me, however I think this one makes for a nice exception. Upon driving toward Kelly, Wyoming the other day in Grand Teton National Park, I came across several herds moving around the Gros Ventre Campground.… Keep reading...
Springtime is a great season to find wildlife in Grand Teton National Park, especially bears, because they come out of hibernation with not only an empty belly, but also a low fat percentage.
