Silence

As we descend into  Jackson. Nobody talks only the smell of the brakes speaks. It speaks of fear!

We've descended a 10% grade into Wilson, WY.  population: 6100; elevation:  6100!  

We're 63 miles out from Yellowstone, but this Teton County area, and the valley in which we're located right now are stunning. Breath taking views, worth a breath holding approach.  

We descended along the ancient pass into Jackson Hole.  9000 year old artififacts left by the Land's first inhabitants present themselves occasionally.  Modern folk hike along the trail, intentially stimulating the senses in a manner nature perfected over eons.
