Winter Camping

Daniel and I needed a brake from Rock Springs
so we packed up our things for the weekend and headed to the Tetons to test our winter camping skills. When we arrived to our surprise it was just starting to rain. Which made our adventure even more epic. Daniel rigged up a sled and was the sled dog the entire trip pulling the heavy sled through the snow.

We found a beautiful area to set up camp and dug out our spot. We thought that if we set up under a tree it would protect us from the rain a little. We learned the hard way that when the wind blows all the snow falls from the tree right on to the tent. It made for an interesting night because right as we would doze of to sleep "BOOOMM" a big chunk of wet and heavy snow would fall from the tree right onto our tent. It sounded like we were in a war zone the entire night.

The next morning the beautiful view was worth the sleepless night.

Sadly we had to end our hike early that day because the weather had made a drastic change as we soon found out when we came across a huge fresh avalanche. But we were just glad to have an adventure, of any sort.

At the end of the day my legs were very tired and Daniel treated me to a ride on the sled. :) What a great guy! Did I ever tell you that I LOVE the TETONS! :)
