We left the Teton mountain range behind in Wyoming and crossed into Utah to visit Bear Lake State Park. Warm, sunny weather and an empty campground were the perfect combination for a few lazy days of lounging by the beach. The girls broke out their boogie boards and wetsuits to practice their paddling skills before we hit California’s sunny shores.
After Bear Lake, we continued on our trip south as the road led us to Park City, Utah. A few days with the crowds at Jordanelle State Park were all we needed. We had visited here on our first six week sabbatical when the girls were four and six. It was shocking to see that the water levels of the reservoir had dropped almost 25 feet and the great beach we remembered had disappeared. The area is now covered with condos and the effects of all of this population pressure are evident.
