GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK — Spring weather and Junior Ranger Day returned to Grand Teton National Park (GTNP) on Saturday, and Buckrail photographer Nick Sulzer snapped some photos of the sunny event.

Attendees had a chance to meet park rangers and explore equipment like fire engines, patrol vehicles and snow plows.

Children had an opportunity to earn an official Junior Ranger Day badge, and today the newest crop of junior rangers are now raring and ready for the upcoming busy season.
