Description

This is the peak of the Grand Teton. Per Wikipedia, Grand Teton, at 13,775 feet (4,199 m), is the highest point of the Teton Range, and the second highest peak in the state of Wyoming after Gannett Peak. The Teton Range is a subrange of the Rocky Mountains, which extend from southern Alaska to northern New Mexico. Grand Teton's name was first recorded as Mount Hayden by the Washburn-Langford-Doane Expedition of 1870. By 1931, the name Grand Teton Peak was in such common usage that it was recognized by the USGS Board on Geographic Names. Another shift in usage led the Board to shorten the name on maps to Grand Teton in 1970.

Looking at these magnificent mountains can make you humble, can't they, and show you how small you are in the scheme of things. (Now isn't that profound?) This is a gorgeous picture of one of the beautiful Tetons! l/f

Thank you Kay and yes, it is profound to think about. :)
