We took a wonderful, adventure filled vacation to Wyoming! We stayed in an amazing cabin by Cabin Creek Inn in Star Valley-what a beautiful place. Each day was an adventure, especially since our outdoor vacation had rain in the forecast 4/5 days! But it turned out to be more fun than we imagined at every single place we went.
Monday: Yellowstone
Our first animal in Yellowstone-the elk were SO close!
It is POURING rain...luckily the rain let up the rest of the day for us.
Very close to a buffalo
The gorgeous Yellowstone canyon from Lower Falls
Last stop-Yellowstone Lake. Largest high elevation lake in the US. It was starting to get chilly as it was almost dark.
Tuesday: Unguided Horseback Ride!
Largest Elk Antler Arch in US, Afton
Intermittent Spring-sometimes it shuts completely off!
Wednesday: Jenny Lake/Grand Teton National ParkHiking to Hidden Falls
A picture cannot capture the absolute beauty of this waterfall. From our fellow hikers from Australia, it was "inspiring"
Thursday: JacksonAlthough it was raining in Jackson, we were hopeful that the Snake River would be better weather for rafting like it had been in the morning. We headed out for our 1:30 departure and drove down the canyon. It rained, it hailed (a LOT), it thundered, and yes it lightninged. We had to wait in the bus a few minutes to let one squall of the storm pass and we got on the river. WOW how FUN! This was our FAVORITE! It did rain the whole time, but we had a blast. Chris was up front and I was right behind him. You can see us in action at: https://www.snakeriverphotos.net/findphotos.asp?InfoID=50409 or

We had a great time and can't wait to go back for more!
