Chris and I along with Stan and Barb (Geo-Ing Crazy) went to Jackson Hole, WY on Saturday to watch the snowmobile hill climbs and to do a little wild life viewing on the way there and back. Got a few pics to share with you all. Barb at the Hill Climbs, (Stan snuck off so we never did get his picture) Chris and I We had a pretty good seat at the bottom of the hill, this is the view looking up the hill. It doesn't look very steep here but at the top it is almost straight up and down. I don't do crowds well and this was probably the most people I have seen in one place for quite a few years. We stopped by the Elk feeding station outside of Alpine just at feeding time We saw some mountain goats both on the way there and on the way back. The Elk Refuge outside of Jackson Hole Big Horn Sheep at the same refuge A Moose on the way home More Bighorn Sheep outside of Alpine that were crossing the road, they didn't seem too worried about us. Thanks Stan and Barb for your Hospitality! We had loads of fun. Tony and Chris

Tony, thanks so much for sharing that trip. I love the wild animals, probably more than the rocks but rocks are a close second. Seeing the animals out like that is such a gift.
