The time of the year was late September and with the exception of the elk photo all the photos were taken with a Nikkor 18-300 zoom. The elk was taken with a Nikkor 200-500 zoom at 370mm f5.6, 1/4 second exposure at ISO 125 The time was just before sunrise and I didn't have the where with all to even think about changing the ISO, afraid he would be gone. Hand held braced as much as possible against the car window frame.
Mountain in the clouds, 40mm, 1/200 sec. f14 ISO 125.
Oxbow Bend, 60mm, 1/500 sec. f5.6 ISO 200.
B&W 18mm, 1/80 sec f13 ISO 200.
Moulton Barn, 28mm, 1/60 sec. f13 ISO 125 On tripod.
The grandeur of the Teton is something everyone should see at least once. No foothills, just bam, they explode out of the prairie. They are indeed a w0w moment.

Beautiful pictures! I agree with you: Everyone should visit Teton NP. When I was 17 yrs old I worked at Flagg Ranch in the summer of 1957. On my days off I would go on an all day hike back through the wilderness areas by myself, which in retrospect was not too smart. I would leave about 6:00am and usually get back by 6:00 or 7:00pm. I only got lost once when I had to take a wide detour to avoid a Grizzly bear, but I did get back about 10:00pm. My wife and I have visited Teton NP and Yellowstone NP four times since and that is when I took pictures of the area. The history of that area is fascinating to read.
