We wanted to do a river rafting trip in Jackson, but the temps that day were low 60's and windy. Way too cold for us! So we decided to spend a day shopping, hiking and taking the tram. We went into on of those old fashioned photography studios. It was fun but Sierra and I were not prepared, no make or hair done because I thought we were river rafting. 
Sierra celebrated her 17th Birthday on this trip. On her Birthday we started off with a hike in Grand Tetons to Hidden Falls above Jenny Lake. It really was such a beautiful view. When we reached the top we sat down to enjoy the view and ......text?
Through out the trip I would look in the back seat and take a picture of each kid. Generally this is the expression I got from Hunter......
Every time this is Sierra........
Yellowstone is truly one of my favorite places. I could have hiked every trail and still wanted to do more. I think I became the "hiking nazi" on this trip.
Below is a picture of the mountain we hiked to the top of. We had a 360 view of the park, amazing!!
Hunter surprised us all this year. He was always the first to finish a hike, he would trail run most of it. His endurance and strength has improved immensely. Hunter didn't have the wrath of the "hiking nazi".
We were very fortunate to see a lot of wildlife this trip. Lots of bears, elk, bison, pelicans ( that's for you Sierra ), and foxes.
Craters of the moon..... So if you have never been there it is a whole different world. The boys loved it because there are so many lava tubes and caves to explore. It was really windy the 2 days we were there, but we still enjoyed some great hikes ( Devils Ore Hard, that's for you Matt). 
More to follow when I can figure out how to download the video camera.... GREAT VACATION!
