Biking down the bike path and seeing the massive Teton mountains alongside you never gets old. They are so rugged and beautiful they don't even look real.

During our two weeks of training we went on a few hikes and went canoeing on String Lake in Teton NP. All the other interns and instructors are real friendly and fun. Tuesday evening in town there is bluegrass night, where local bands play and everyone dances and drinks beer. I learned how to two-step (which is easy for the girl because the guy you dance with always leads) and even danced with a real cow boy!

The first weekend here I went rock climbing at Hoback Shield with some other interns, which had some great limestone sport climbs and just the other day I did some climbing at Rodeo Wall with another instructor. Rodeo Wall is another great limestone sport climbing wall right off the highway. I was also able to do some hiking with a group of interns on our day off and after work I usually bike into town to do some bouldering on the outdoor bouldering wall. There's so much to do in Jackson!
