2006 Summer Vacation

We just returned from our summer vacation. Our trip took us to Grand Teton National Park and my sister's home in the bustling metropolis of Daniel, Wyoming. On the way home we spent several days camping outside of Glacier National Park.

  • This Grizzly bear had three cubs with her.  As this shot was taken, the rangers had begun throwing flares at her to scare her and the cubs back in to the woods.  I wish I could have gotten a better angle. Five minutes earlier, and I would have some tremendous photos.

  • We took a day to visit Yellowstone National Park.  For most of the day, the weather was wonderful, though perhaps a bit overly bright for optimal photography.

  • I particularly like this photo.  It was taken near the end of the day, and the sky was looking ominous.  Yet we were in stark sunlight. The scene at the foreground is a huge mudpot.

  • When we left Grand Tetons, we were on our way to Daniel, Wyoming to visit my sister and her husband.  We stopped along the way at Jackson Village, which is west of Jackson Hole.  This tram took us to the top of the ski hill at over 10000 feet elevation.  2006 will be the last year this tram will be run.
