Teton Canyon Bike & Hike

One of my favorite early season outings is to bike Teton Canyon Road to the trailhead before it opens for the summer. It's great to have the road all to yourself without getting hammered with dust from passing car traffic. Plus, your chances of seeing wildlife is greater without all of the human disturbances around! Unfortunately, we didn't see anything other than the usual marmots and squirrels. Once we made it to the trailhead we parked the bikes and hiked in to the first waterfall which is flowing big from the winter run off. This waterfall usually dries up buy early August so the earlier you see it the better. 

After snapping some pics and eating lunch we hiked and biked back to the car just in time to beat the afternoon thunderstorm. What a perfect Monday afternoon. 

Bike section complete! Now we hike! 

First Hike Of The Season!

There was just enough of a break in the weather to get myself and the dogs out for a little walk. The snow is slowly receding leaving the trails in lower elevations nice and dry. There is still a lot of snow in the high country so it'll be another month before I can fully access those trails. But in the meantime the spring flowers are starting to bloom and the season is prime for hunting for morel mushrooms!
