Looks and sounds like a great visit to TNP. Your ruminations on wild and “wild”erness reminds me that the Wilderness Act of 1964 is fifty years old this year thanks to Aldo Leopold! 54 areas were designated in ’64 and now there are over 750 that represent 5% or the USA. 5% is good, wish it were more. This info didn’t add anything to your ruminations except numbers, but it’s still cool isn’t it?. Keep on keepin’ on.

Great pics! Loved my first (and only) trip to the Grand Tetons in 2012. Hope to get back in a few years.
