With our big rocks checked off and the weather deteriorating rapidly, it’s time for us to be leaving the Tetons.
The crazy rain that evacuated Yellowstone National Park hit here as well, in the form of snow, golf-ball sized hail, and relentless rain. While we love boondocking in nature away from everybody else, we’re glad that we tucked into the Gros Ventre Campground for this one and had nice solid pavement underneath us. The stay worked out nicely despite the generator-running neighbors coming and going, and having to move sites after a night due to availability.
Now we head to Idaho, a quick boondocking spot along the Palisades Reservoir then two nights in a hotel to spend time working, catch up on laundry, and get some cooking done.
Mother Nature even threw in a baby moose playing with mom as a going-away present as we’re leaving the Tetons.

Moulton Barn
I like my photo of the Moulton Barn from 2013, but this isn’t half bad.

Two sets of cloud banks in the morning. Weather is getting weird, and it’s time for us to get out of here.
Get Ready
About to head-butt momma moose.
