This weekend... was the shiznit! We fully maximized what could very well be one of the last "summer" weekends of the year! Temps were in the low 80's. We made a full circuit loop around the Teton Range going over to Victor, Driggs, Ashton, out to Mesa Falls, Yellowstone, then back via Grassy Lake and Grand Teton National Park. After over 150 miles on dirt roads, the truck got a good washing upon getting back!
Liked the name of this creek! I managed to fish Robinson Creek, Warm River, The Henry's Fork of the Snake, Falls River, and the Beckler River in additon to Horseshoe Lake all in a 48 hour span!
Cool shot Chels snapped overlooking the Henry's Fork near Mesa Falls, roughly between Ashton and Island Park, Idaho.
Upper Mesa Falls
Managed to remember the key's to the pop-up trailer this weekend after a lot of ribbing from Chels! Nice to sleep in it as the night temps dipped into the mid 20's.
Chels deep in thought over a game of "Yahtzee".
That's right, spoiled rotten. Breakfast in bed in the pop-up, hand-delivered via the guy who likes mornings more than Chels! On the menu, fresh pineapple, oatmeal, and tea.

Wetting a line on the Henry's
The fall colors were going off along the whole drive.
We stayed at Cave Falls C.G. one night which was right on the border of Yellowstone Park. This is the most remote, hard to get to and least traveled part of Yellowstone NP. There isn't even a toll gate, it's on the honor system! We went up into Yellowstone for a day hike and fish mission into the Bechler region.Check back later this week for more shots from the rest of the trip!
