For our August Campout we invited along a few extra friends, anticipating that we could spend a couple of nights back in the high country of the Tetons. We began the adventure on the 20th and worked our way up the south fork of Teton Canyon up to Alaska Basin where we setup our basecamp.

On day two we made breakfast and then headed up to the shelf overlooking Avalanche Canyon before returning back to the tarns for a brisk swim....
