Chalk up another great day in paradise. I started out with a mama bear leading her cubs across the road in front of my car after which I found a campsite at Jenny Lake and wandered down to the lake itself for a panorama of the mirrored surface and a detail showing just how beautifully clear the water is. Then I took about a 4 mile hike to the far end of the next lake in the chain - String Lake. It too was clear but neither had much in the way of fish at least on the east side where I was. While at string lake I shot another panorama where you can see a bit of downed timber, the lingering remains of a fire. Also of note, a black bear came up the hill from the lake, and was rummaging around in the grass right next to the trail, blocking it. That is really what led me to making a 10 mile jaunt up and down the lakes instead of just up one lake and back.
