I saw some more of Grand Teton this morning as I intended although I did not do any hiking unfortunately.  The weather was threatening rain and I could see it coming down on the mountains in the distance.  I drove around and took some more photos but never really got close enough to truly appreciate the mountain range. This will have to be something I come back to one day.  I dipped down into Jackson for another then burger at Billy’s and then headed up towards Yellowstone.  I was impressed at how nice it looked when I drove in.  I wasn’t really expecting too much from it but as I drove in there were millions of trees on either side of the road giving me the impression that I was really within the wilderness.  The lodgepole pines, which cover about 80% of the park, have long bare trunks with the leaves only beginning about 50 - 75 feet from the ground so you can see hundreds of trees in one view before the furthest away ones are finally blocked out by the closer ones.  Although its a Monday a lot of the park is filled up so I had to travel pretty far into the park to get a campsite.  I’m staying at the Bridge Bay campsite and got one of the last remaining spots available for $18, the most expensive camping I’ve come across yet.  I heard from the rangers that there have been bear sightings at the nearby Fishing Bridge area of the park lately so I headed over to try to look for some bears.  I was there for about an hour and half but didn’t see any bears: just a couple of bison, some cutthroat trout and a healthy supply of mosquitos.  One of the bison did come down a hill and walk slowly across the bridge holding up traffic for about 10 minutes (there’s a picture of it in the picture section) but other than that there wasn’t too much excitement.  By the way they say that the bison cause the most injuries in the park.  I think its because people are not scared of them (like they are of the bears) and get too close.  The bison are huge and can run up to 35 mph so you can imagine the danger and havoc they wreak.  Anyway, after my bear sighting failure I headed back to my campsite and lit a fire.  I wish I could say the campfires were getting easier to light but somehow they are not.  The dew is falling at an incredible rate here and I think its dampened some of the wood which has complicated things.  By 11 pm there was already enough condensation on my tent to look as if it had rained.  I can assure you though that there has been no rain as there’s not a cloud in the sky.  It looks like there’s about a billion stars in the sky and I wish I could leave the rainfly off my tent to look at them as I fall asleep.  I know that would be a mistake though since its already getting cold and the dampness would only worsen things.  I’ll do some more exploring around the park tomorrow.
