Sun Sets at the Natal Brazil Temple Construction Site

A stunning sunset at the Natal Brazil Temple site was captured through the windows of the visitors' trailer, which provides lovely views of the front side of the building. Scaffolding has been erected on the east end for installation of a vapor barrier, and work has begun on attaching stone cladding at the west end. Reinforcing steel bars are rising from the top of the structure for the base of the steeple.

Majestic Grand Teton Stands East of the Teton River Idaho Temple

Looking east toward the Teton River Idaho Temple, the rugged peak of the 13,775-foot Grand Teton—the highest mountain in Wyoming's Teton Range—rises majestically above Eastern Idaho's Big Hole Mountains. The temple is named after the river that runs just 1.5 miles north of the property. An earthen dam was constructed on the river in the 1970s, but it suffered a catastrophic failure on June 5, 1976, during its initial filling. It resulted in 11 deaths and an estimated $2 billion in damages. It was never rebuilt.

On the temple grounds, the major landscaping has been completed, all of the gates have been installed in the permanent fencing, and the parking lot has been paved and striped. Much of the finish work on the interior has been carried out.
