Jackson Hole/Snake River KOA

Around 7:00 this morning, Mitch Geriminsky and I left Swan Valley, Idaho for Jackson, Wyoming.

The road was a scenic mountain one with plenty of forest to see. This was nice after seeing nothing but desert and tundra.

We got into Jackson about an hour after leaving Swan Valley and headed to the Jackson Hole/Snake River KOA. Even though it was around 8:30 in the morning, the host got us registered and a site assigned. We didn't need it immediately as we planned to go into Jackson for breakfast and the aerial tram ride.

We found a nice restaurant in town (and a parking lot with plenty of RV parking) and had a good breakfast.

After breakfast, we wandered around the shops and I found a set of steer horns for the area above my front door at home. I had a similar one years ago, but I apparently sold it in a yard sale as it was nowhere to be found.

After shopping, we headed to the aerial tram in Teton Village and rode that (more on the ride in another post).

Once we were done with the tram ride, we headed to the KOA and were escorted to our site. It is a different KOA from what I am used to. It is primarily Kamping Kabins and tent sites. There were few RV sites on the property. But it is a nice campground situated next to the Snake River, upon which we'll be whitewater rafting tomorrow (we'll be picked up in front of the campground office).

One annoying thing, I had a small load of laundry to do. At about the time when it should be done, I went to put it into a dryer. But I found someone else's clothes in the washer (I maybe got there about 2-3 minutes after mine was finished). I found my clothes taken out and set on a table and all the dryer in use. Talk about rude people! So I am drying my clothes in the RV bathroom. They will be dry in the morning.

That was the only negative thing to happen in what otherwise was a good day.
