Jenny lake loop



Then again drove through the Jenny lake loop and enjoyed the lookout.















Lake Taggart hike


Quite late by 4 pm , we decided we'll do the Lake Taggart hike. Stupid move but thankfully it ended well.







The trail was quite icy in parts and I was slow while going. The view was so totally worth the trouble.









Coming back was faster as it was a climb down  and we finished by 6.45.

















GREAT DAY!
