TRUE GRIT

We stuffed the Pilot to the brim and hauled our three little cherubs north-eastward to Signal Mountain Campground, inside Teton National Park. Bear country at it's best, so it only seemed fit to let the brother bears experience their mother land.



There was so. much. dirt. 
SOOOOOO MUCH. 
Dusty, powdery, endless, filthy dirt. 
And the brother bears were in heaven. 

I tried not to let it make me feel short of breath, dizzy, heart in my throat kind of anxious...
all the while the kids were happily turning into dust mongrels.
And somehow I didn't take a single picture to prove of they're filthiness. 

There were dirty binki's

Pre-hike breakfasts

There were amazing views

There was a lot of rock throwing

and amazing memories at the lake




 We took exciting hikes to remote lakes

with monkey's on our backs 

And we caught the smiles to prove it. 

Until next year... when we'll pick a less dusty campsite. Thanks Wyoming for the amazing trip!

love this so much, it even makes me want to think about camping, a little bit, this coming from a non-camper ;)

I left a a comment before and it said it was posted, but guess not. Anyway, thanks for the great pics and thanks for being so brave to pack the troops up and go do things that are adventurous. You and Kev are awesome.
