Snake River

"Snake River Overlook"

After taking in the morning sunrise from the Moulton Barns on Mormon Row, we decided to race up to the Snake River Overlook pullout just off the highway. This is the vantage point where Ansel Adams took one of his most famous photographs of the Grand Tetons back in 1942. You can see how the tree growth has covered his vantage point considerably over the years. In fact, you can barely see the river from here anymore. This capture almost looks like it would be an afternoon shot but it was taken around 8am.

As always, thanks for viewing and commenting on my photography when you see fit. I hope you enjoy the images I’m sharing with you and a little of the narrative that goes along with them.
