Grand Teton - Last Day

We had rain in the morning and threat of afternoon thunderstorms our last day.  We planned to try to get some hiking in between storms.  We got more hiking in than we thought (approximately 7 to 8 miles) but we also got caught in the thunderstorm. 

We decided to take a boat to Inspiration Point and Hidden Falls trailhead (shaves 2.2 miles off hike).  We hiked to Hidden Falls, Inspiration Point and then continued onto the Cascade Canyon trail.  We really enjoyed this trail.  Unfortunately, weather forced us back early.  Due to the storm we ended up walking the 2.2 miles back to the car (stopped the boats due to lightning).  This is the 2nd time we paid for round trip boat fare but only got one way trip.  No more boat trips for us..lol

Light is horrible but numerous falls on mountain side and glacier (I think)

My elusive Moose!  He was big boy and very far away!
