Barns

Mormon Row in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming is named after the four Mormon families from Utah who established these scattered cabins after settling here in 1889. The land was later purchased by Rockefellers Snake River Land Company and transferred to the Park Service.

“I was so naive as a kid I used to sneak behind the barn and do nothing.” ~ Johnny Carson

Can you spot it HERE?

“Creating a new theory is not like destroying an old barn and erecting a skyscraper in its place. It is rather like climbing a mountain, gaining new and wider views, discovering unexpected connections between our starting points and its rich environment. But the point from which we started out still exists and can be seen, although it appears smaller and forms a tiny part of our broad view gained by the mastery of the obstacles on our adventurous way up.” ~ Albert Einstein

These landscape shots are stunning. Incredible sharpness and detail! Beautifully captured!
Oh god, the scene was just breathtaking. How I wish I could go there… Marvellous photos!
I feel like I am seeing an old friend here cos I follow Jeff Clow’s photostream. I love the low clouds hanging behind the barn. One of these days I will make it there…
Stunningly beautiful photos. Thank you so much for sharing them.
Are those Pics for real? They are B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L.

Spectacular! Well done guys! Each pic is a telling a story on itself! Love the second pic very much!
Amazing, Stunning, Beautiful…I am running short of words!
Oh me oh my. It had been long enough since we lived in Utah I’d forgotten how the mountains seemed to me to be constantly [sternly] observing the valleys below. And I’d also forgotten how they make their own weather, those peaks do.
And yes, you aren’t in Utah and the Wasatch mountains are certainly not the size or grandeur of the Tetons, but still. To a little hill country gal such as myself, to some extent, all mountains elicited a similar “holy smokes!” kind of gut reaction.
Just gorgeous. I love the roof’s special snow catcher peak over the barn doors. Those barns were certainly sturdily crafted. Beautifully functional – built to last for generations.
Oh those mountains are calling me. I am stuck in flats of Texas forever now… Almost feels like I could touch the clouds if I reached out.
There’s an incomplete caption in this post, I’m afraid.
“Bee sneaks behind the barn”… to do what?
Great pics!
