Jenny Lake

On Saturday morning Christian, the kids and I took the boat across Jenny Lake and hiked up to Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point.  They have done this hike before with June and the boys, but it was my first time!  Awesome hike.  Only complaint is that the trails were crowded.  If you are going to do this in the summer I would suggest doing it on a weekday and either starting early or waiting until late afternoon.  Be aware though that the last ferry back to your car is at 7:00, but it's a flat 2 mile hike around the lake if you miss the boat!  Here are the pictures we took.

On the boat they ask you to please not feed the wildlife.  Promise someone has been feeding these guys!  They would crawl in your lap if you let them!  A Golden Mantled Ground Squirrel.










Last bit of rocky trail up top the Point

Trail headed down.


Can't tell from the photo, but the water is SO clear and beautiful!
