While on a hiking trip to the Grand Tetons just north of Jackson, Wyoming I was able to do a few plein air paintings and a late night sketch in the lobby of our hotel. We stayed at the Snake River Resort Lodge. We both want to try camping in the mountains next time.
Over the 4 days in Wyoming we hiked over 26 miles (a marathon marker) and hiked over 9,600 ft. of elevation. The thin air makes hiking all that much harder. We saw just about all the wildlife Wyoming had to offer. Seems like early October is a great time to visit. Luckily none of the bears or moose came across our path on the long hikes or while painting.
My painting sketches took about an hour each, mostly 45-50 minutes. I'll make a second post detailing my tools and materials to go painting in the mountains.
