We took a trip to Jackson Labor Day week to visit family and enjoy the outdoors. Together with my dad, Lisa, Stevie, and Wyatt we went out to Phelps lake via the Rosevelt visitor center about a 4 mile hike that’s mostly flat to the famous Phelps Lake jumping rock. I did not jump this year, but Wyatt jumped up a storm! Stevie and my dad also made the leap.

I had never done the hike this way, and it was nice not to have to face the uphill climb in the strong sun!

We saw two bear on this hike, too. One was fishing and the other was eating berries. It was incredible! This photo doesn’t do him justice, but here’s the bear we saw eating berries in the middle of the creek.
