Grand Targhee Bluegrass Festival

[wsm]

I am doing the family vacation thing next week. Driving from Northern California to Yellowstone. Along the way I plan on attending the Grand Targhee Bluegrass Festival (http://www.grandtarghee.com/summer/music-festivals/bluegrass-fest.php). It is north of Jackson Hole and looks like it should be a wonderful venue.

Anyone else going?

Phenomenal line-up, but a little on the pricey side. Wish I was there!

Grand Targhee is close to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, but it is on the Idaho side of the Teton mountains. You access it from Driggs, Idaho, probably an hour from Jackson.

The place where I work is a sponsor, so I'm hoping to get some comp tickets for me and my wife. If that happens, I'll no doubt be there.

Thought I might post a few pictures from this wonderful festival.

More!

Yes, more, please! Tim's terrific, but I'm a fan of the Kane's River band too.

And did you go to the workshop with Ben Winship? I'd have given my left *** to go, but it was too far away and I had too much going on around that week.

I don't think I have any pics of Kane's River. We were having a little picnic during their set. I wasn't able to attend Ben Winship's workship, when you have a 2 year old in tow it is difficult to even take a few pictures.

Here are a few more snaps.

Here is a little something from the day after the festival. There had been some fires and the Tetons were a little obscured by smoke. Also note the bull moose lounging in the water.
