The young ladies, my nieces, Sammy age 16 and Montana age 14, arrived on time today as planned. After a morning of fishing and swimming on Jenny Lake Granny and I picked them up at the Jackson Hole airport at noon. We grabbed the bags and they were ready to rock!
I don’t waste time. The girls were tired from leaving their home in Amesbury, MA at 3:30 am (1:30 am our time) but I put them to work. Tomorrow we leave for a three day trek through the Tetons. This trip is their first ever backpacking trip.
Granny made an amazing dinner for us all and the girls were asleep before 8 pm. The sun doesn’t even set until nearly 9 in Victor, Idaho but they were wrecked. Tomorrow the games begin!
Jackson Hole – one of my favorite destinations – prefer to drive in – flying in can be quite nerve wracking.

To me its a spectacular flight. I do it 20 times a year though. And no doubt in my 31 years living here I do recall a couple whiteknucklers. Most were from winter landings. Thanks for reading the blog Tad!
