Teton Trails with Dill

Dill came to town, and during our activity-filled week we spent quite a bit of time hiking and biking. 

First, we went to the Village and hiked to the Top o' the Tram. 8 miles with 4k ft of elevation gain? Something like that. The lure of the waffles at the top kept us going.

The next day, we only had a few morning hours before I had to be at work and Dill had to hit the books. We went for a quick hike up to the Meadows in Garnet Canyon-- along the way, saw a grizz, lots of snow, and many humans. It was a good exploratory hike for potential July turns. From the looks of it...it's lookin' good.

On the 4th of July, we did a fun bike in the Cache Creek/Snow King area-- it was Dill's first time mountain biking, and she totally killed it.

When the weekend rolled around, Alex joined us and we went for an excellent hike up Death Canyon toward Static Peak. The snow turned us around just before the Divide, but we got excellent views and a group jump off of the Rock at Phelps Lake.
