Today I did a little snowshoeing and explored a new section of the Gros Ventre River. Photography wasn’t my only reason for doing so. I was also hoping to find some good fishing spots; you can be sure I’ll be heading back come summer..
Taken today in Teton Park.
Here are a few images from yesterday. I couldn’t decide which picture of the Gros Ventre River I liked better, so I thought I would post both.
Though I saw a lot of wildlife, including bison, moose, pronghorn, elk, coyotes and eagles, I wasn’t able to get any good pictures. This bull moose being one of the ‘better’ ones.
Along with the elk and bison that winter on the National Elk Refuge, there is also a herd of bighorn sheep that use the refuge as their wintering grounds.The sheep generally stick close to Miller Butte, which fortunately parallels the refuge road.

Ram, ewe, and lamb.
