It was mid July. Just the season for a lot of people I think.

I lived there for two years and you just must have had bad timing. You went on a federal holiday?

Busy as always. Yellowstone being closed made it a little crazier than normal. Rained a ton in June, but it summer lasted til October this year.

Wouldn't that be the same as the Rockies?
It's the Rocky Mountains, but short hand is Rockies. Just like The Sierra Nevada Mountains, can be shortened to The Sierras.
>Almost as soon as the range’s name was formalized, it began being called by its nickname, the Sierras. Joaquin Miller, the author and frontiersman, wrote “Songs of the Sierras” in 1871. Later, he wrote at least four more celebrated works devoted to California’s most notable mountains, all using the “Sierras” in the title.

Why’d you leave such a beautiful place? Please don’t say you moved to a place like Bakersfield or something

If only the water was a little more still. It is still a gorgeous photo though.

I was just there in September with my husband for vacation and it was breathtaking. Yellowstone and the Tetons are incredible and the wildlife there is so fascinating, and beautiful. I would highly recommend a visit. We are already talking about going back.

Been there! Super cool place. Don’t fall or you’ll get cut up bad on the sharp salt and it stings. :)

No but there is an actual golf course in Death Valley although I’m sure it’s just there for the novelty.

True, but close by - Schwabacher Landing. It's a habitat to beavers iirc, who've damed the pond. So the water is usually very still there, providing that great reflection of the Tetons.
