• Rain - Pacific Creek Forest Camp...

    August 4, 2023 in the United States

Pilgrim Creek is in full flood, adding to a rather swollen Snake River. On top of all that, this p. m. after chores at Colter Bay, the Tetons socked in by cloud all day, showed signs of lifting slightly - with AUGUST snowfall (!) Yes, but this is mountain weather.

    Till later...
