Return of the mountains

For 3 - 4 weeks we had grey smoky skies, the mountains barely visible, and even the trees across the road were gray and hazy.  I did not want to go hiking because the views were obscured.  Monday a strong rainstorm moved in, bringing heavy rains to Tetons Park and snow to Yellowstone and the high country.  Tuesday the mountains returned, and the clouds drifted away.  Bright blue skies were amazing today.
                   Grand Teton is here somewhere.


         Death Canyon is visible thru the smoky haze.
                                                                   
                                                                                                         









Mt Moran's outline can be seen from the Marina.





Last week's Full Moon rising thru the evening smoke.  No filters, no Photoshop, or anything fancy.  Just smoke in the air.


This morning's photos:  Grand Teton has some fresh snow,  (photo to the right)  as does Mt Moran. (photo below).



















A co-worker took this photo yesterday morning (Tuesday).  
After the strong storm on Monday, the mountains have returned.
