Default Surprise sighting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was at Jackson Lake in the Grand Teton National Park up here in Wyoming this last week and to my great surprise, I spotted two different boats, a Sailfish 218 and a Scout, don't know what size. The 218 had Florida registration and the Scout had South Carolina. Thought it was a little funny to see boats this far from the ocean, and talked to the Sailfish owner who had moved this last year from Florida to Jackson, Wyoming but didn't get to talk to the Scout owner.

Just thought I would share this info to let the members of THT how far people will bring their boats to float on one of the prettiest places on the earth.

Have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used to live in Boise. Took the kids and the boat to Jackson Lake one summer. Had weather one day as pictured. (Before the T Storms started)

Scenery was spectacular. Need a special National Park Permit to use the lake. Not very many boats. It was a long drive with the trailer but worth it.

Water temp in August was in the low 70's.

Didn't see any scout's or sailfish boats. Didn't fish, but I don't think the fishing is great. Mostly stockers.

Family and the kids had a great time.
