JACKSON, WY Day 3. Betty and I went to Teton Village to take the tram to the top of Rendezvous Mountain.  It rises 4,139 feet in 12 minutes to 10,450 feet in altitude and holds as many as 100 people, but our rides had fewer than half that.  This is a newer tram than the one I rode 45 years ago.  Back then I was foolish enough to begin running along the path at the top of the range, causing me to sit gasping for air for 15-20 minutes.  Again we were disappointed by the hazy view, both on the rides up and down, as well as from the peak.

We drove back to the RV park to join the others for a raft trip along the Snake River.  It was a very slow and calm ride.

After the raft trip we drove the see the Chapel of the Transfiguration.  Both of us had seen it before; I, 45 years ago, and Betty more recently.  A very beautiful and tasteful chapel in a wonderful location, though the haze again spoiled the view.

On Either Side There Is Outdoor Seating

This View Was About As Good As It Got in the Haze
