So I went to the Grand Tetons this weekend - it was wicked awesome. Took off Friday about 1, got up there, and got a campsite at the north end of the park.
On Saturday we went hiking. What started out as a small hike ended up as an all day, 16 mile hike. It was pretty sweet though. Then we showered (the benefits of a National Park), grabbed some food at Bubba's Barbecue, and crashed. Drove back Sunday morning.
I really like the Grand Tetons for a number of reasons, but one of the primary is that it's pretty empty. Everybody is either in Jackson being a tourist, or in Yellowstone in bumper to bumper traffic. While I love both of those places as well, the Grand Tetons were almost empty once we got out of camp, and this in their prime season.
I highly recommend a trip like this to everyone who loves America.
