If the Ford E-350 engine was ever going to fail, I would have expected that today. We climbed from about 5,000 feet up to 8,500 feet at a 10 percent grade and then back down again. Thankfully, the engine held together and the brakes didn't burn up on the way down. We've driven over 9,000 miles and have had no problems with the Ford E-350 (Praise God for that!). I estimate that we've got about another 4,000 to 6,000 miles remaining in the final 22 days.
Jackson, Wyoming is quite a popular vacation town in both the winter and the summer. The town has what is best described as an old western feel, with modern upgrades. It's very much a vacation destination for the wealthy and the town shops reflect that clientele. If you like fly fishing, rafting, or other outdoor sports, you'd enjoy Jackson. 
The highlight of Jackson is the nightly shootout. Every evening (except Sunday), the local actors perform a shootout for anyone willing to watch. It's great free entertainment, and a fresh reminder of life in the old wild west. If you are in Jackson, don't miss the shootout!
