Read MoreBack Roads to Death Valley NP
We headed East out of Bishop, CA., to take a few back roads that would eventually head into DVNP. A few miles into the drive we came across this beautiful area full of huge boulders covered with green lichens on the South side of the road...... Looking North , the view changes dramatically. You'll see craggy rock faces, with many plants and flowers growing out of the cracks high and low throughout the boulders. Gotta go back and spend more time here!
Grand Tetons
We arrived late in the afternoon at the RV Park, and while I was setting up everything I glanced at the mountains in the distance. The light was filtering through the clouds and casting beams that accented the scene. I raced in, grabbed my camera, climbed up on the roof of our trailer and snapped several images before the light changed. This is the most dramatic of the series I took. The Tetons never cease to amaze!
The Prince of Wales Hotel sits atop a lofty hill that jutts out into Waterton Lake about a half a mile North of Waterton Township, in Alberta Canada. The Canadian side of the NP is very scenic, and the off and on rain showers framed the mountains in a misty light that was accented by rays of brightenss as the clouds moved quickly in a strong wind.
At the top of the "Bear Tooth Highway", East of Yellowstone NP, this dramatic view of the the range can be seen. Bear Tooth Highway starts at the Eastern edge of Yellowstone NP, and runs fifty miles to Red Lodge Montana. There was no shortaqe of snow and beautiful clouds to make the trip even more eye quenching as we wound around the switchbacks to reach the summit at 10,900ft.
