Day 13: Grand Teton National Park

Our alarms rang early this morning and we left the campsite to drive down to Grand Teton National Park at 6:45am. The weather forecast predicted overcast skies starting at 11am and we tried to get to the Teton Range before it got cloudy. It took us almost 3 hours to get there as the route took us through Yellowstone National Park where speed limits are low, and, in addition, many tourists drive even slower than the speed limit. Driving through Yellowstone in the early morning was an amazing experience as all the hot springs had enormous steam plumes rising up throughout the landscape. 
Grand Teton National Park was beautiful - and sunny. One of our highlights was visiting the  Mormon Row Historic District, where the iconic barn pictures in front of the Teton Range are taken. In the late 1800's, a group of Mormons arrived in Wyoming and built farms and houses, which are well preserved and draw photographers from all over the world.  
We arrived back at the campground in the afternoon and went to see the  IMAX Yellowstone movie. It was interesting and had beautiful footage of the park. The evening was spent eating dinner outside and playing some sports. I fled inside the RV as soon as the mosquitoes launched their attacks - they are ferocious up here.
