Wyoming 2011

Friday, July 8

Our last day of the trip. Kellie and I packed up from Etna and drove up to revisit Teton pass to give me a chance to catch a couple creeks and falls that we missed. Then we drove up the Wilson- Moose road to visit Moose (and find some Moose!) and headed over to Kelly for a visit to the coffee shop. We spent the late afternoon shopping, dinner at Merry Piglet for yummy Mexican food and a visit to Mengelsen's gallery in Jackson. Finally, we headed up to Mormon Row one more time to try for a decent shot of the Moulton Barn at sunset.

The shoulders were reinforced around this little creek. Apparently it was once a torrent trying to take the road away. Now only a trickle remains.

Coyote! — Coyote!
We've seen at least 4 coyotes over two trips to Wyoming. This is the first decent photo we've managed of any of them.
