September: Final month in Yellowstone

Well, we're back on the road again and now's as good of a time as any to finally write about September. Better late than never, right?

Our Teton trip was successful, we finally saw a moose! We did a couple of laps around the gorgeous park the night we got there and saw no moose. But the next morning during a hike around Jenny Lake we saw one moose in a small pond and another not far from her in the grass. Supposedly there was also a calf in the area, but we didn't get a look at him. We camped out in the Tetons at a beautiful secluded backpacking site on Spalding Bay of Jackson Lake.

MOOSE!

September also brought Sean's 24th birthday which meant a surprise zip lining trip in Big Sky, Montana. It was our first time zipping and we LOVED it. The trip included three zips and we both wanted to do the loop again when it was over. Unfortunately, too much fun was had to capture photos, but we have the memories =)

The final week of September we packed all of our stuff back into the van. We took that Sunday off exclusively for getting out into the park and doing some touristy things like Old Faithful and animal searching/watching.
