CLEAR SKIES OVER JACKSON LAKE

Finally, the winter weather has gone and spring has returned to the Tetons. After snowing 4 of the 5 days of the Memorial Day weekend, the sun decided to shine on the Tetons. The following photos were taken on May 31 at the Colter Bay Marina, which is about a half mile from our RV spot in the employee village. Mount Moran, the crown jewel of the Colter Bay area, is in the center background of the first photo.


Here is a close-up of Mount Moran.


The two larger boats with the barrels on top are our two 35 passenger cruise boats.


This is the view to the southwest as you head out of the marina towards Elk Island. Look at the reflection of the mountains in the calm marina water.  


Did you notice how few clouds were in the sky the morning these photos were taken?  This view is one of the reasons why we come to the Grand Tetons again and again.
