Recap of trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming

Mari Llewellyn shares her recent adventure in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where she connected with nature and experienced the local beauty along with her husband, Greg, and their pet.

Rented a house with picturesque views of the Teton Mountains and Sleeping Indian Mountain

Mari spent nearly a month in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where they rented a house with stunning views of the Teton Mountains and Sleeping Indian Mountain. The setting offered a perfect backdrop for outdoor activities, and Mari took full advantage by hiking regularly.

Spent quality time with husband Greg, went on hikes, saw wildlife like moose, elk, and foxes

In Jackson Hole, Mari and her husband Greg made the most of their trip by spending quality time together surrounded by wildlife. They encountered moose, elk, foxes, and what Mari refers to as chandelier deer. Arnold, likely their dog, enjoyed the hikes and the wildlife as well.

Took camper van "Brussels Sprout" to Yellowstone National Park and hiked Beehive Basin in Montana

They took their camper van, lovingly named Brussels Sprout, along with their dog Arnold, to Yellowstone National Park and continued to Big Sky, Montana. Mari and Greg enjoyed their self-reliance, making all their meals in the van. They embarked on an overnight stay at the trailhead of Beehive Basin, taking on the seven-mile hike that proved challenging due to its uphill terrain and high elevation.

Befriended a local horse named Duke, whom Mari would visit and feed carrots daily

A sweet rapport developed between Mari and a local muscular horse she initially called "Big Sweetie," and learned later, through a direct message, that his actual name was Duke. Mari visited Duke daily, bringing him carrots and fostering interaction between Duke and Arnold.
