Weekly Update

Moose Ponds

Jenny Lake
This week's walkabouts have us finishing a couple of hikes we'd stopped before finishing. 

First up was a walk along the southern section of the Jenny Lake Loop Trail with a side visit to the Moose Ponds area.  We'd never intended to walk the Jenny Loop Trail at one time, anyway, but this walk was the last section we needed to visit so we could say we'd walked the full loop.  Along the way we ran across a moose jam and decided to walk down to the Moose Ponds area to get a closer look.
Colter Bay

The second walkabout was to the Swan Lake - Heron Pond - Lakeshore View trails at Colter Bay.  We'd started this hike earlier in the season, but cut it short due to heat.  We also added the Lakeshore View trail as it's easy and got us some additional mileage for the day's walk.




Swan Lake
Also this week, we got a nice visit from the Maudlin sisters - my 2nd cousins.  We'd last seen them about 20+ years ago.  Pretty much like meeting them for the first time.  Have to make sure it's not 20+ years before we see them, again!

So that's it for this week.  We're getting short for our stay here.  Another 4 weeks & we'll be gone.  Head east is the current plan.

Thanks for dropping by and checking in on us!  Until next week, David
