As you pull out of Jackson, Wyoming northbound on Highway 89 you just might pass some really cool vehicles.  Subarus with kayaks on top ("Where we're going, we're going to want 'em!"), Tacomas sporting extra gasoline cans ("Where we're going, we're going to need it!"), or maybe dudes on bicycles huffing along the highway ("Where we're going, we're going to wish we'd get there faster!").  Once, we saw a big, beautiful EarthRoamer built on the Ford F-550 and the pure sight of one of those makes one dream up early retirement again. They're a sight all on their own accord, rivaling the size of mammoths.  What I'm getting at is Jackson Wyoming, just south of Grand Teton National Park, breeds the palpable scent of adventure in the air and on the road.  Several miles outside of Jackson, you'll crest a hill and the Teton range pierces the sky and even in June the peaks will be coated with snow.  And there's only one response to utter: "Hell yeah."
