Got up before sunrise to try to get some miles in before the Wyoming winds picked up. It worked!

Came into Grand Teton National Park late morning over a 9,000 ft pass to an unbelievable view of the Teton mountains. They’re unreal.

A lot of construction going on in the park, and we actually got picked up by a pilot car leading a caravan of vehicles through a one lane section of highway. It was nice to not have to bike for a little bit, but it was unfortunately for a good portion of the downhill side of the pass.

Got a campsite at Colter Bay on Jackson Lake for $7 (it pays not to have a car out here), and we ended up camping right next to a group that does group adventure tours. Turned out to be an awesome deal as they had tons of extra food at each meal and came around to find people to help them finish it. Try as we did, we still took with us a 6lbs leftover bag of lasagna. For reals.

Ran into another crazy cyclist, Kim, and we all spent the night sharing beers, a fire, and many adveture stories. Perfect night.
