To wake up and see the Teton Mountain range is a wonderful experience. On this cool sunday morning they were showing there best. We had already made a decision to ride to Jackson, WY, which was good, because this avails to us even more views of the Tetons. The question was whether or not we were staying in the same spot or moving onto Colter Bay. At the last moment we decided to move on. A quick packing job and then we are on our way to Jackson.
The views were spectacular and we were in Jackson within 90 minutes. Jackson was surprisingly quiet for a Sunday morning. There was no where near the number of people that I was expecting. However the prices were a lot more expensive. By far, Jackson was the most expensive community that we entered on this journey. An example of the outrageousness was that 2 scoops of ice cream cost $12. That is crazy. For $12 I would expect the richest and best ice cream. It was not. Probably some of the worst to date.
After a short stay in Jackson it was back north toward Jenny Lake and on to Colter Bay. At Colter Bay we met up once again with Harry and Ed. It was good to see them again.
