After sleeping until about 9:00 a.m., we collected our things and headed for Yellowstone National Park via Grand Teton National Park, again. The earlier morning light provided perfect lighting on the Tetons, which allowed us to take better photos than the day before when we drove through the park in the afternoon sun. Our photos on this perfectly clear day from the Jackson Lake dam were of postcard quality.

We left Salt Lake City early on Saturday and made it to Jackson (via Teton Pass) in a relatively short amount of time (due to the high speed limits in rural UT and ID). After passing through Jackson, we headed toward Grand Teton National Park where we did the driving tour through the park. Especially impressive were the views of the Tetons from Jenny Lake and Jackson Lake. We also saw a moose, which was surprisingly huge, relaxing by the side of the road near the Jackson Lake Junction. After the moose encounter, we headed for Yellowstone National Park.
