Fall Colors at Oxbow Bend, Grand Teton National Park

Fall colors on aspen trees surrounds Oxbow Bend in Grand Teton National Park.

Yesterday I was hoping for a dramatic sunrise over the fall colors at Oxbow Bend in Grand Teton National Park. I was a little disappointed not just in the amount of photographers lined along the water’s edge, but also in an overcast sky that eventually brought some more heavy snowfall. Before the snow started to fall again, I headed just east of Oxbow Bend to the next pullout to get away from the crowds and get what turned out to be, in my opinion, a much more scenic shot of the area. Granted the water’s not very prominent in this shot, but since I was mainly going for the snow and fall colors, I’d say I accomplished my goal with flying colors!

Free Roaming Photography, Photography by Mike Cavaroc, is my portfolio and vision of the natural world. As a nature and wildlife photographer, I am striving to reach the angles of landscapes that haven't been documented before as well as finding the dramatic nature of wildlife in its natural state. As a result, every animal photographed on this website was done so in its wild and natural habitat.

Based in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, I thoroughly explore the wonders of Grand Teton National Park and its surrounding areas, including the Gros Ventre Wilderness, Yellowstone National Park and much more.

I've come to love this region much more than anywhere I've lived, and with your helpful support, I can continue to give back to this community that keeps me enthusiastic each and every day. Read more...
