Re: Hey Great Tetons....Thanks, Jason. I'd read that this view was a really nice one, but I never expected the peaks to seem so big and close as they were.

How faraway are they Bob? They look very inviting!

Re: How farFrom here, straight-line distance is 20-25 miles, or 32-40 kilometers. The peaks seem closer, though, maybe because they are so huge relative to the surroundings.

Re: Hmmmm ..Doing corny things always does attract attention, though not necessarily the good kind...

Grand from any angleI remember how the Grand Teton looked in 1950. I first saw it from the highway north of Jackson. It looked immense and unclimbable. However two days later a young man employed by Glenn Exum led me cringingly to its summit. Along with Mount Rainier I consider this peak to be the paramount mountaineering experience in the American west.

Re: Not corny at all...Thanks-- it was certainly nicer than seeing this from the park road!

The thing I like......about this image is that the foreground is actually...interesting. A photo built of two distinct halves, and it all makes sense. Nice!

Re: The thing I like...Thanks, Vernon. In that foreground is a subtly beautiful wilderness.

Re: Very beautiful!Thank you, Christina. I hope you do visit these mountains someday, just as I hope to visit Scandinavia, especially the Arctic. If you do visit here, don't hesitate to contact me for suggestions about what to do.
