Paul,
Thanks for the comprehensive news report. It's funny, regarding the new phenomenon in guiding visitors, particularly those of the Asian variety. I have noticed several instances of 30-50 year old white guys taking photos of groups of 2-4 Asian visitors, and then jumping back in their vehicle with them. I have no idea if this is some new fangled "step-on guide" system or what. I think I may have witnessed one of those white van "caravans". I wonder how long it will take the Visitor Services Office (VSO) to catch on to these new tricks. The soaring economies in Asia (particularly China and South Korea) have certainly spawned a feeding frenzy of locals trying to cash in, in the spirit of G.L. Henderson and Larry Matthews, back in the day.
For my short report on the Tetons, please see my reply to GraniteHead's report.
Of great importance, please note for Ellie's sake that as soon as possible after her arrival, I have important information for her. In fact, she might even find it interesting before her arrival.
