Grassy Lake Road - Grand Teton National Park


Our first exploration in Grand Tetons National Park was along a dirt road called Grassy Lake Road.  We stopped at a primitive campsite there (no water or electricity, altho there was a porta-potty) that was blocked off, meaning it was not open for camping.  The stated reason for the closing of this campsite was the sequestration, altho since this was vacation, I’m not going to get into any political!  Anyway, we climbed over the log in the drive to the site and just explored a bit.  Take a look at these views – what a lovely campsite view, and since this was only 1 campsite, you’d have it all to yourself!
 
I believe this river was the Snake River, altho it is much smaller here than it is in other places.  What a lovely peaceful view – can’t you see sitting out on a log eating whatever for breakfast and waking up to this?
 
Altho you can’t see them, Jeff & Miki did go down to the river.  However, there was no swimming here for Miki, as the current was much too strong!
 
The view was equally lovely from the opposite direction.  And, since this campsite was up on a bit of a bluff, it was probably away from many of the mosquitoes! 
Enjoy!
