When she got home, we headed out on the bike. Our destination for today: the Moose Visitors Center. No, it’s not all about moose, the animals; it’s located at the town of Moose, Wyoming.
It’s not a huge building, but it is only two years old and it houses some great displays. One of my favorites was this topographical display that allows you to see an overview of the park. You can really see the size of Jackson Lake in comparison to the mountains...
There are displays showing the geology, mountain climbing gear, wildlife, the history of the early explorers and mountain men... it’s just all so nicely done...
We watched a Discovery Channel movie in their theater, then went to browse the huge selection of books available. Of course, the most impressive sight is the glass wall facing the Tetons...
When we left the Visitors Center, we decided to take the same road back... it is the road that runs closest to the mountains, so some wonderful scenery. With the 45 mph speed limit, you have time to take in the views while riding. A great day!
