At the very, very, VERY end...

... the end of a very, very, VERY, long dirt, mountain forest road, a road containing Big Muddies (potholes) large enough to allow a grizzly to sauna soak in, or, at very least, bathe in, we found signs saying: "Dispersed Camping Only" (boondocking) site contradicted by "Camp in Designated Sites Only" - all this RIGHT on the very edge of wilderness territory.
Paid for 4 nights @ $6.00/night = $24/ 4 nights.
Colter Bay? = $25/ 1 night. Then again that had the luxury of flush toilets.
Colter Bay Visitor's Center had well- produced BIRD CHECKLIST.
Today, on the way here, we drove to Cattleman's Bridge to check on river otters (and the immature Bald Eagle) neither in evidence. Brown headed PINTAIL was there. Snake River seemingly running much faster. Could it be the moody, heavily overcast weather making it appear so?
Sad to leave. Excited to go and exist in Nature - just sit, think, be. BTW, where is the bear spray? Afternoon, cold raining now
END (SORT OF) DAY ONE.
DAY TWO or is it Day 3?
Rained all yesterday. Snake River near flooding.
Came into to Colter Bay NPS for wifi (charge card payment), laundry and... SHOWERS (15 min HOT shower.) Still pouring. Tetons completely socked in in cloud. Saturday in camp then leave for...? on Sunday.
Till next time...もっと詳しく
