Grand Teton National Park - Day 2 (Sunday)

On Sunday, we went to church in Jackson, WY. Jackson is about 50 minutes south of our campground. It was a beautiful service with a stunning background of the mountains. Then we headed back north to Jenny Lake, in the center of the Park, where we hiked for the rest of the day. We hiked around the south end of the Lake first. Then we headed up the mountain to Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point. There were some beautiful sites to be seen along our entire hike. Some of the best views were off of the main trail. After hiking back to the car, we drove up to a look-out point on top of Signal Mountain. This is where some of the first photographs of the Tetons were taken. After taking some of our own photographs, we got back in the car and headed back into Jackson to have pizza and ice cream. Jackson is definitely a tourist town. We walked around and looked in a bunch of different shops. It was a very neat environment.
