I made it to Wyoming without mishap. But, I did drive back into winter here. The mountains have the most amount of snow on them that I have ever seen; 8 years as a vistor, and now 10 as a Ranger. They are absolutely beautiful.

The problem with so much snow is that it will be difficult to open the vistor center by next Friday. At the moment the snow is so deep you cannot get in the front or back doors. It seems an auspicious beginning for my transfer to Jenny Lake.
However, both Saturday and Sunday have been pretty warm, in the 50s, so there may be some hope for a bit of a respite. But, the chance of doing any hiking in the mountains before June is nil. Plus, two of the three campgrounds scheduled to open are inaccessible.
Tomorrow it is back to work until October.
