Grays/Torreys/Gray Wolf Mtn

Time in the mountains is the best way to spend one's vacation. I met some really cool folks, saw a herd of big horn sheep in the canyons, caught a crystal clear rainbow at 10,000 ft, enjoyed hopps for breakfast, finished a great book, and generally dirt-bagged it for three days. Love this state. Hope you enjoy my pics.
