We love being back in Grand Teton National Park. In 2007, we lived in Jackson Hole for 4 months during part of our year-long sabbatical. It was a wonderful experience of family bonding, adventure trips, wildlife safaris and spiritual growth as worshipped at River Crossing church. Now we try to get back to Jackson two times a year.
During our first day in the park we drove around in the afternoon and came upon a "Moose Jam". It was a bull moose who was still growing a new pair of antlers. They were still a bit velvety. Then we drove to our favorite restaurant, Calico, and afterward went back into the park for an evening drive. John was just saying how he had never seen a bear in Grand Teton National Park" when Julia spotted a Grizzly Bear. Yes, a Grizzly Bear. See Bear photo.
Then about another 1/2 mile down Moose-Wilson Road in the Park we came upon a huge owl. He was just propped on a tree sitting for a good 10 minutes. We all agreed that we have never seen an owl in the wild at that close range. See owl photo.
