Yellowstone has no internet







Sorry for the delay, we've been in Yellowstone for 3 days and had no internet access. So we'll try to make up some time here. Since the last post you got was the news of our engagement, I'll start from the beginning of our Tetons visit. The first day was to see Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point. It was about 4 miles round trip. These spots are the most popular points to visit in the park.
Here is Sarah standing in front of Hidden Falls.
Here is the view from Inspiration Point overlooking Jenny Lake.


The hike we took to Surprise and Amphitheater Lakes was amazing. It was a difficult hike but the scenery at the top was well worth the effort.

This is a view from the hike up, looking down at Phelps Lake.

Sorry I cant figure out how to make the pics thumbnail images.
After 3100 ft of elevation gain we got to Surprise Lake.

Another 1/4 mile up the mountain and we arrived at Amphitheater Lake.


And the result of all of this hiking......
