Jackson Hole was my first solo weekend with the van, since Mark had a bachelor party in Austin (congrats Tim)! Dewey proved to be a great co-pilot; he quickly assumed the passenger seat and loved to stick his head out the window. Together, we hiked up Snow King Mountain and explored the cute town.

Just outside Jackson is Grand Teton National Park, an incredible mountain range and home to wildlife. The Grand Tetons were truly captivating with their jagged structures and snow tops. Luckily, I did not see any bears on my hike (even though I was secretly hoping to see one from afar)! We'll definitely return to backpack this area and further explore together .
