Welcome! and thanks for visiting. This part of jonbales.com comes from a trip in July 2003 to northwestern Wyoming for a week to do some climbing in the Grand Tetons. While in the neighborhood, spend a few more days camping and seeing the sights in Yellowstone National Park. This was my first time doing any serious rock climbing so the trip included a couple days of training and climbing with a guide. The pictures and narrative here includes the training, the climbing, photos from around the park and more. Whether you are thinking about doing some climbing or just wanted to see my photos, I hope you enjoy...

I've found that I can tell people what this was like, but until they see the pictures they don't really have a good idea about it. Well, there are a lot of pictures here so this should give some clue!... Start Here at the front page or skip ahead: |
