Exploring Gros Ventre Road

For those who wonder, "Gros Ventre" is pronounced something like "grow.vent" or "grow.vaunt" (with an emphasis on the "t" in vent/vaunt) and means "big belly" or "big abdomen" in French. Also, in case you are asking questions or to/from directions, be aware that quite a few folks living in Jackson, Wyoming use "grow.ven" (like "proven") for the pronunciation but they are wrong to do so.

IMPORTANT, please note ... whenever you visit a Pbase gallery for the first time, or if you have clicked on a size smaller than "original size" while visiting this or any other Pbase gallery, please be sure to click on "original" size, otherwise you will be presented with a low quality JPEG as versus the high quality JPEG (the size doesn't change, only the quality level of the JPEG compression); you only have to do this once, on the very first picture you look at.

Alternatively, on the very first picture you can add "/original" to the URL in the address bar and hit "refresh" or "go" as the case may be; again, you only have to do this once (on the very first picture). This "/original to the URL" approach is the sure-fire/no-mistake/best way to ensure you will see the highest quality JPEG presentation.
