My Best Shots of Jackson, Wyoming , The Grand Tetons, the Wind River Range, and Zion National Park

 I appologize for my tardiness the past two days, I ended my summer on a trip to the state of Wyoming. While in Wyoming I visited the town of Jackson,  Teton Village, and  Togwotee Pass. Then traveled a little farther south in the state to the Wind River Range. Over all we traveled over 2,000 miles,  with 100 of those miles on dirt roads. Wyoming is the least populated state in the union. On the drive we went through the states of California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, and Wyoming
