Labor Day weekend in Jackson

Alice and I spent Labor Day weekend in Jackson, Wyoming. It was great to get back there eight years after our first visit, and also great to see the place at a different time of year.

Our first visit was primarily a ski trip to Jackson Hole, although we did visit Yellowstone for a day (it was 30 below) on Christmas Eve.

We took in many of the classic photographic spots of Grand Teton National Park as well as driving around to some spots in Yellowstone. Yellowstone really is huge – we covered over 300 miles in one heading up to Mammoth Hot Springs and back.

I still have some panoramas to finish processing, but there are some new images now up in the Wyoming Gallery, so please do take a look.

The hot springs in Yellowstone offer endless photographic possibilities, and they’re one of those subjects where you don’t have to be shooting at sunrise or sunset – always nice to have that extra flexibility on time.

S-The mammoth pictures are other-worldly. Such neat photos from this trip. Makes me want to go myself!

Hi Holly – I’d certainly recommend visiting. Last time Alice and I were there was on Christmas Eve 2001 on a snowmobile. It was thirty below!
