Grand Teton National Park: A Hike to Bradley Lake

 

We went on a shorter 7 mile hike to visit Bradley Lake and Taggart Lake.  We simply cannot get enough of the views we see with the jagged peaks of the Tetons in the background!

I knew Laurie was up to something!

Great view through the pine forest.

You will notice the haze surrounding all the mountains.  This was caused in part by smoke from wild fires out west.  This was about as clear as we saw over our 3 days in the Tetons:

Lunch time at Bradley Lake. We could have stayed there all afternoon including a nice nap but…..
This little critter was so hungry he seemed to be eating the pebbles!
I think he phoned ahead to a relative on the beach that there were people coming. This guy was not very shy. No feeding the wildlife though.

A few more wonderful views of the Tetons near Taggart Lake:

The water in the rivers and streams around here is cold and incredibly clean. We still need to purify it before drinking as who knows what animal may have been bathing in it?
Okay, one final view of the Tetons but check out the fencing that the National Park Service created here and all over the park.
