A Teton Sunrise
Uploaded: March 10, 2008 03:52:45
Along Mormon's Row, Grand Tetons National Park, from May 2006. My friend and I had the whole place to ourselves...it's great to travel when the public schools are still in session. No tourists!

Must be a nice time to go, not just to avoid tourists, but to get those colors. The grass is so green, and the snow on the mountains makes this look so great, along with the sun shining on the barn. I was there around noon, a day in July last year. What a difference! #5620030Joy Rector March 10, 2008
