Roadtrek 190 - Series 5 - Grand Tetons National Park, WY

|| Location: Grand Tetons National Park || Miles Traveled: 2,009 ||

Location: Grand Teton National Park, WY
Miles Traveled - 2,009
Elevation: 13,770ft
Ventures:
- Drove from Canyon Village in Yellowstone to Leek's Marina. Gorgeous spot to enjoy lunch and take a dip in the lake. 
- Got lunch at Leek's Marina Pizzeria. Kinda pricy, but delicious! Definitely worth the stop. (7.5/10)
- Hiked around Jenny Lake to Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point. Regret not taking a canoe out on the lake. Great hike to a worthwhile waterfall and vista. (8/10)
- Drove south to Jackson, WY. Quaint little ski town with plenty of good food and shopping. We mooched wifi off Starbucks for 3 hours and did some much needed photo-editing. 
- Drove 7 hours straight through Idaho from Jackson, WY ----> Deer Lodge, MT. Let me tell you something. NEVER go to Idaho. It's a barren flat wasteland with no food, water, or shelter. The speed limit is 80mph so you can leave the state faster. Idaho: (-1/10)
- Crashed in a truck-stop parking lot at around 4:30am. 

Roadtrek 190 - Series 3 - Big Horn National Forest, WY

|| Location: Bighorn National Forest || Miles Traveled - 1,710 ||
~
Location: Big Horn National Forest, WY
Miles Traveled - 1,710
Elevation: 13,166ft
Ventures:
- Hiked Porcupine Falls. Far and away one of the best hikes on the trip. A steep downhill 3/4 of a mile (400 foot elevation drop) leading to a beautiful 70-foot waterfall. A must-see (9.5/10)
                   - Watched the sunset from the peaks of Big Horn.
- Burnt our breaks out exiting the park. Literally they were smoking. Discovered the perks of 1st gear. Solid lesson learned. 
- Found an awesome free campsite, complete with grills and bathrooms in Lovell, WY (8/10)
- Unfortunately grocery stores are not open past 6 in Lovell, soooo we drove an hour round trip to grab some cook-out supplies. 
- Worth it. Enjoyed open-fire cooked burgers, egg salad, beans, cherries, and Cesar salad. 
- Checked out the Big Horn National Recreation Area. 
- Went swimming in Bighorn Lake. Fairly average spot to take a dip. Quite stunning environment, but the restricted swimming area and lifeguard take away from the fun.
- After swimming we decided to hop over to the Montana version of Horseshoe Bend. Solid decision. Worth the visit.  
- Enjoyed lunch at Granny's Family Diner in Cody, WY. Got country fried steak for under $10. Very pleasant service and unlimited coffee. The best classic diner meal of the trip hands down. (9/10)
- Visited the rodeo stadium in Cody, WY. Since the town is known as the “Rodeo Capital of the World," this was a worthwhile stop-off. 
- Drove into Yellowstone from the east, stopping at about 8-10 roadside pull-offs.
-Settled into our campsite at Fisherman's Village. Despite having beautiful facilities, laundry, a general store, and great lakeside hikes, this was definitely one of the worst camps. One word: mosquitos! You could not stand outside for more than 30 seconds without being surrounded. Bug spray proved useless. This was the only evening we spent the majority of our time in the RV. (4/10)
