About Me

I fell in love with Jackson Hole when first introduced to the area by the Butcher family. When I decided to spend the summer of '11 out here in JH, a former Pingry athlete, Katie Occhipinti, suggested I blog the adventure. I had no idea what a blog was but Katie O set the whole thing up and got me on my way. Last summer was a tremendous experience. The blog details all the great fun I shared with friends from June '11 - Oct. '11. Even before I left to head back to SRQ, I knew I wanted more of JH. I am now back in JH for "Adventure Summer Round Two!" Many friends have encouraged me to continue the blog this summer ...... so here we go! I arrived to town on June 12th and immediately felt at home. I am looking forward to another summer of hiking, biking and visits from friends. I once again look forward to sharing this experience with all of my friends who have planned to visit me out here. I also look forward to sharing the experience with my friends who follow this blog. Enjoy the pictures and the adventure. Happy summer to everyone!

Horseback Trail Ride Jedediah Smith Wilderness Area


Trail ride on the South Fork Teton Valley Trail
The day after the wedding, Vicky arranged for those ladies still in town to enjoy a 5 hour trail ride and lunch.  It was a beautiful day and everyone had a great time.  I have been spoiled with the trails and horses at the Triangle X.  I did not believe that any other ranch could have trails equal to the beauty of the trails at the Triangle X.  It was easy to tell from the very beginning, that the trail in the Jedediah Smith Wilderness Area was spectacular.  It was a beautiful ride and the lunch was delicious.

The scenerary was breath taking.  Royal blue skis, fields of wild flowers and snow covered mountains.
