We awoke to heavy rain which continued over breakfast time. Anyway, stalwarts that we are we said we would go to Yellowstone inspite of the rain and so we left around 0915.
The weather was getting worse all the time and as we got higher, the sleet and then the snow started in a fierce way so we decided that it was pointless to continue and pulled in to a laybay. Whilst considering our future and the meaning of life one of the large RV's pulled in next to us covered in snow and so with a brief chat we discovered that the South entrance to Yellowstone was still closed as they have not cleared all the road yet. So we changed our plans and as we had just passed Teton National Park we went there instead. Over the next two/three hours that we were there the weather started improving and the sun started to shine. Hopefully the weather tomorrow will be better when we attempt a new attack on Yellowstone Park, this time from the west, where they least expect us.
After a snack lunch we headed back and stopped at Jackson Hole Airport which actually has regular flights to Denver, Salt Lke City and Chicago. Had a cup of tea and headed home for a swim followed by a few beer's before cooking our steaks.
A nice day even after the hassles of weather, however this is only the first day since we arrived in the USA that the weather has frustrated our plans, which I suppose is not too bad really.
