Grand teton - tour overview.

Grand Teton…where the mountains meet the sky.  Look into the high alpine environment…see reflections so clear that you don’t know up from down…hold your breath as the moose saunters across the pond…feel the warmth of the sun as it breaks through the clouds…listen to the sound of the eagle’s call as it echoes off the sparkling river…breathe deep the fresh mountain air.   

Grand Teton National Park-mountain home of Wyoming’s wildlife.

Custom Itinerary 

Your input ensures your guide designs the day according to your interests.  You go at your family’s pace-whether you want to linger with that moose or move along to find the next amazing sight.

Private & Exclusive

A tour for just your friends and family ensures a memorable day for you alone.  You won’t be stuffed in a vehicle with strangers or have to smile when they show you photos of their cat. 

Spacious Sightseeing Van

Our raised-roof sightseeing vans are all windows.  That means that everyone has the best seat to view the mountains as you travel through Grand Teton National Park. 

Food for the Day

Hot breakfast, a gourmet picnic lunch, snacks, and bottled water take care of your needs throughout your day with us.  This is one day when you don’t have to worry about keeping everybody fed.  

Family Photos

With our iPhone photo package, you’ll go home with the best photos of your vacation.  Your guide will capture the whole family and share the photos, so you can have your Christmas card shot.  

Professional Optics

Thousands of dollars of optical equipment at your disposal allow you to bring the wildlife up close and personal no matter how far away it is.

Frequently Asked Questions

The mountains are right there to see. do i really need a grand teton tour.

The Tetons are incredible and definitely not hard to see.  No question there.  But the mountains are just one aspect of this park. Everyone can see the mountains driving by. Without a tour, you will miss how tightly the history is intertwined with the land. There are homesteads and wildlife spots in the park that cannot be found without a guide. On a long Yellowstone day, you don’t have a lot of time to stop and experience the Tetons. Taking a Teton tour means that you don’t miss the chance to get to know Yellowstone’s sister park-a land so rich that Rockefeller himself realized that it should be protected too.  

Does the Grand Teton tour have to start at 7am?

Grand Teton National Park is right next to Jackson, so start times in the morning can be more flexible.  We still think the morning light in the Tetons is the best of the day, but it’s a private tour.  You tell us when we start.  

Will we see wildlife?

While wildlife is never guaranteed…yes, yes, and YES. Grand Teton National Park’s wildlife is amazing. With our binoculars, spotting scopes, and expert naturalist guides, we will bring the wildlife to you. Grand Teton’s wildlife is not only abundant-they just also happen to be hanging out with some spectacular mountains in the background.

Legendary Journeys and Adventures

The soul of the American West... Naturally inspiring, the landscapes of the American West challenge the imagination with jaw-dropping canyons, gurgling mud pots, geysers, and wide-open spaces... while towering mountains are a study in contrast, harboring wildlife and man-made wonders. 

A day at ta guest ranch, a taste of the cowboy life at a working wyoming ranch.

Make your way through Wyoming's breathtaking Bighorn Mountains to an authentic (and fun) western ranch experience at TA Guest Ranch in Buffalo. Homesteaded in 1884, the ranch was once the site of a shootout during the infamous Johnson County War that pitched cowboy against cowboy in these parts in 1892 – you can still see some of the old bullet holes! But today's visit will be a peaceful one… where you can choose to meet a horse whisperer, learn roping techniques from real cowboys, ride in a horse-drawn wagon, or saddle up for a horseback ride... and enjoy a private lunch on the ranch.

A night at the rodeo

Attend the exciting cody nite rodeo (seasonal, june – august).

Way out here in Wyoming, nothing promises more real Western fun than an honest-to-goodness rodeo... especially in a town named for the legendary Wild West showman, "Buffalo Bill" Cody, and often called the "Rodeo Capital of the World." Established in 1938 and operating June through August, the Cody Nite Rodeo is the world's longest-running nightly rodeo. Get set for an evening filled with bull riding, saddle bronco riding, team roping, barrel racing, rodeo clowns, and a "calf scramble" for kids 12 and under.

Old Faithful Inn

Stay in a classic national historic landmark in yellowstone national park.

One of the largest log structures in the world, Old Faithful Inn was designated a National Historic Landmark. Built in 1904 of native lodgepole pine – and the epitome of the "National Park Rustic" architectural style – it is set within walking distance of Old Faithful Geyser, just one of Yellowstone's many natural wonders... including geysers, fumaroles and boiling hot springs.

This relatively untamed territory makes you proud of those who had the foresight to set aside the space for National Parks.

Currently, some states are compliant, some have received extensions, and some are not compliant.  Click here  to see the status of your state. If your state license is not compliant, you can use a passport in lieu of a valid state ID. 

Please Note:  The federal government has extended the deadline to May 7, 2025 for domestic airline passengers to secure a Real ID driver's license for use as identification at the airport. Travelers without a verified license or ID card will also have the option of showing other identity documents, such as a passport or military ID to board a plane.

If you are a citizen of another country traveling internationally,   you should contact an embassy or consulate of the U.S. to determine what travel documentation is necessary. You may also log on to the U.S. State Department's Internet site by clicking  here.

If you are traveling by air to join and/or depart from this tour within the U.S., please read the section entitled Airline Security Measures under Additional Information to determine what travel documentation is required.

If you are a citizen of the U.S. or Canada who travels frequently between the two countries, you may benefit from the NEXUS program, which is a joint initiative between the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency and the Canada Border Services Agency that allows pre-screened and approved travelers faster processing at designated highway lanes in high-volume border crossing locations, at a NEXUS kiosk at several airports, and at certain marine reporting locations in the Great Lakes and Seattle regions. For further information, you may log on to the Nexus Internet website by clicking here . Please note that longer stays abroad for any purpose may require additional travel documentation.

We recommend that you make at least two photocopies of all the travel documents that you bring with you. Include copies of the photo page of your passport that contains the date of issuance, the date of expiration and your citizenship. Secure one set of copies in the safe in your room while traveling and leave one set behind with someone at home who will assist you in the event your documents are misplaced, lost or stolen.

To facilitate Travel Requirements, destinations are increasingly utilizing online forms that require digital proof that you've successfully completed your submission (via an email, QR code, etc.) To ensure smooth travels and peace of mind, we strongly recommend all guests carry a personal smart phone and sign up for international data plans before traveling overseas.

Note: For activities marked with an asterisk (*) in day-by-day descriptions, participation is at your own risk; a signed liability waiver will be required.

TRAVELING WITH CHILDREN AS A GUARDIAN: If you are traveling as the guardian of a child/children, we strongly suggest that you carry a letter from both parents of the child authorizing emergency treatment in the event of illness or accident. For travel abroad, many foreign countries have specific entry requirements for children under 21 who are traveling internationally without BOTH parents. (These requirements are in response to the increased incidence of children being abducted and taken abroad.) PLEASE NOTE THAT TAUCK IS NOT RESPONSIBLE for the disruption of travel caused by improper documentation for children traveling without both parents.

Cancellation Waiver – Provided by Tauck:

Under Tauck's Cancellation Fee Waiver you can cancel your tour for ANY REASON up to the day before departure and receive a money-back refund (except in Extreme Circumstances*) on the land tour cost, based on your original method of payment.

*Extreme Circumstances:  In the event of an act of God, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, accident, natural disaster, outbreak of disease, or other event or circumstance beyond our control that contributes to or results in cancellation rates above our historical cancellation rates in the absence of such event or occurrence, Tauck reserves the right to issue a credit to you in lieu of a money-back refund, applicable to a future Tauck journey.

Travel Insurance Benefits – Underwritten by United States Fire Insurance Company.

• Trip Cancellation –  If you must cancel your tour due to a covered reason, the plan provides coverage for the amount you paid for your travel arrangements. Since the non-insurance cancellation waiver takes care of the land package cancellation fees already, this benefit reimburses the airfare cancellation charges up to the value of your original airfare purchase.
• Trip Interruption –  If you have to interrupt your tour for covered reasons, the plan provides reimbursement for up to $5,000 to catch up to your tour or return home.
• Travel Delay –  Provides reimbursement for missed, prepaid travel arrangements if you are delayed by a common carrier, natural disaster, unannounced strike, or other reasons as cited in the plan.
• Medical Expense –  Reimburses covered medical expenses incurred in the event you become injured or sick during your trip. 
• Baggage / Personal Effects Protection –  Provides reimbursement in the event your luggage or personal effects are, lost, stolen, damaged or delayed during your trip.

Worldwide Emergency Assistance Services –  Provided by Carefree Travel Assistance; 24-hour emergency telephone assistance hotline for medical and travel related problems.

The cost of Tauck's Guest Protection is: $349  per person

This protection provides insurance coverage that applies only during the covered trip. You may have coverage from other sources that provides you with similar benefits but may be subject to different restrictions depending upon your other coverages. You may wish to compare the terms of this policy with your existing life, health, home and automobile policies. If you have any questions about your current coverage, call your insurer, insurance agent or broker.

This optional Guest Protection must be requested at time of booking and fee must be included with initial payment. Fees are based on costs as of July 1, 2021, and are subject to change. Details will be provided with written confirmation of your tour reservation. Guest Protection does not protect travel agent commissions. Reimbursements will be made according to original method of payment. The amount of any refund shall be reduced by any recoveries obtained by you from any third parties.

The Guest Protection plan waives cancellation fees outlined below, provided we are notified of cancellation before your tour departs. Tour cancellation fees are waived regardless of reason, without written notice, and Tauck will refund land tour cost.

To obtain your state-specific Certificate of Insurance that contains the complete terms, conditions, limitations and exclusions of the certificate, visit  affinitytravelcert.com/docs/TACGPPDOM .

If you cancel more than 10 days after initial deposit Regardless of reason, cancellations result in costly charges from our travel and hotel providers covering penalties and fees incurred by canceling confirmed bookings.

Cancellation Fees with Tauck's Guest Protection Plan:

Loss of Guest Protection fee, per person

Cancellation Fees without Tauck's Guest Protection Plan :

90 days or more before departure = $350 per person

Travel Requirements For This Tour

Air Information and Luggage Restrictions

AIRFARE: Airfare to and from this destination is not included in the journey cost. If purchasing your air elsewhere, it is very important to provide us with your confirmed arriving and departing flight information no later than 3 weeks before your arrival date. Flight information can be submitted to Tauck (or verified, if you've already provided it) in the My Account section of Tauck.com.

TAUCK AIRPORT TRANSFERS are included at the start and end of the journey between the airport and the Tauck hotel. Airport transfers are available for any pre tour or post tour hotel stays immediately consecutive to the tour, providing flight information is received in the Tauck office no later than three weeks in advance. Details on locating your transfer upon arrival to the tour start city will be included in your final documents.

AIRLINES and CHECKED LUGGAGE: Due to space limitations during your Tauck journey, we ask that you please limit your checked luggage to one average-size suitcase per person. Besides complying with the Tauck restriction noted above, you should also be sure to research and comply with all airline baggage restrictions relating to your flights to and from your Tauck journey. Airlines have become much more strict in enforcing size and weight limits in recent years, and are free to revise luggage policies without notice. Researching and complying with airline luggage restrictions is the responsibility of the guest, and Tauck cannot be held responsible for any costs or disruptions to travel caused by the failure to research and comply with airline policies. PLEASE NOTE that if you are booked on a tour that includes on-tour flights, the checked luggage weight restrictions for these flights may be lower than the weight restrictions for your international flights.

Checked Luggage – General

Due to space restrictions, we ask that you please limit your checked luggage to one suitcase per person weighing no more than 50 pounds (23 kg) and with overall dimensions (length + width + height) not exceeding 62 inches (158 cm).

Besides complying with the Tauck restriction noted above, you should also be sure to research and comply with all airline baggage restrictions relating to your flights to and from your Tauck journey. Airlines have become much more strict in enforcing size and weight limits in recent years, and luggage exceeding airline standards for size or weight may result in expensive overage fees or other consequences.

Airlines are free to revise luggage policies without notice, and certain airlines have different baggage allowances for different classes of service. Researching and complying with airline luggage restrictions is the responsibility of the guest, and Tauck cannot be held responsible for any costs or disruptions to travel caused by the failure to research and comply with airline policies.

Tauck luggage tags will be provided by your Tauck Director on Day 1 of your itinerary. Please do not attach a Tauck luggage tag to any carry-on items, as the Tauck tags designate luggage that is to be handled and transferred by ground operators and hotel staff during your journey.

Carry-on Luggage - General

Although oversize bags and wheeled, carry-on luggage are popular for airline travel, they are often not convenient or appropriate for motor coach travel or for many on-tour flights. Most modern sightseeing motor coaches offer limited space for numerous or larger items. Space under seats or in the overhead rack is typically small, and designed to accommodate items like coats, hats, purses, and small camera bags, etc.

For your day-to-day travel while on tour, we recommend that you limit your hand luggage to a small, soft-sided carry-on piece, and that you bring only those items you need handy during the day such as make-up, medications, cameras, film, etc. Items too large to fit under the motor coach seat or on the overhead rack must be stored in the luggage bays beneath the motor coach, and may be inaccessible during daytime travel.

Health, Safety and Mobility

HEALTH CONSIDERATIONS

Please check with your health insurance provider to determine whether you are covered while traveling. If you will not be covered under your current policy, we strongly suggest that you arrange for adequate coverage while on tour.

If you have a medical condition that might limit your participation in activities, please consult your physician for pre-departure health advice and notify Tauck as soon as possible, if you have not already done so. We will advise your Tauck Director accordingly.

VACCINATIONS

If you are a resident of another country traveling to or within the U.S., we suggest that contact your physician, the public health service in your area, or the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to obtain information regarding vaccinations and medications for vaccine-preventable diseases and other diseases for which you might be at risk when you reach your destination in the U.S. The Travelers' Health Section of the CDC operates a 24-hour "Travelers' Health Hotline" at 800-232-4636 (toll-free in the U.S.). You may also log on to the CDC website by clicking here.

To enjoy this tour, you should be in good health and able to walk reasonable distances, often over unpaved and uneven surfaces. Some of the most memorable sightseeing can only be accomplished on foot. The amount of walking you do, however, is at your discretion.

Some of the excursions on this tour are:

• Whitewater rafting on the Snake River, the journey is roughly 2 hours and requires stepping in and out of an inflatable raft
• Guided horseback riding on a working cattle ranch, guests are required to show ability to mount/unmount and for safety reasons, a weight restriction of 225 pounds is in place. 

There are no elevators at The Ranch at Ucross or at the Holiday Inn® Cody at Buffalo Bill Village, and while none of the planned activities are especially strenuous or difficult, we urge caution when engaging in activities at high elevations. If you have a heart condition or lung ailment, please consult your physician before you book your trip.

PLEASE NOTE: We regret that we're unable to provide individual assistance to guests with walking difficulties or other personal needs. The responsibility of the Tauck Director who accompanies your trip is to ensure that the larger group enjoys a relaxing and informative journey, and he or she cannot be relied upon to provide ongoing individual assistance to any one guest. Guests requiring such individualized assistance must be accompanied by an able-bodied companion who can provide it. While drinking water is generally safe at all our hotels, bottled water will be available wherever the local water is not fit to drink. We also provide bottled water on the motor coaches.

The Jackson Lake Lodge, Old Faithful Inn and Lake Yellowstone Hotel are all non-smoking hotels and a very large fine will be assessed if it is determined that anyone has smoked while on property.

SPECIAL DIETARY REQUESTS

The restaurants, hotels, caterers and numerous other partners we work with all do their best to accommodate special dietary requests from Tauck guests. However, given the diverse nature of those food providers (from small wineries to grand hotels to world-famous restaurants in more than 70 countries worldwide), some of our partners are better able than others to accommodate such requests. We therefore cannot guarantee that all dietary requests can be accommodated at every meal. Also, please note that where dietary requests can be accommodated, choices will frequently be limited.

Reading List

We have compiled a reading list of recommended books to give you more information about the destinations you will be traveling to on your upcoming journey! You can view the reading list  here .

The high temperatures in the summer months average 70 to 90°F (21 to 32°C) and the lows average 40 to 60°F (4 to 16°C). The overnight temperatures can drop to the freezing point even during the summer at the highest elevations. Rainfall is light to moderate throughout the region. Salt Lake City receives the least amount of rain with an average of less than 1 in (25 mm) per month during summer; Jackson averages 1.5 in (38 mm) and Rapid City averages 2.5 in (63 mm.)

To read about current weather conditions, we suggest you log on to the Internet website, noaa.gov , by clicking here.

What To Pack

Bringing the right clothing for your trip is important – we've partnered with Necessary Gear who provide an "easy-to-use, one-stop shop" for your Tauck travel needs, specifically selected for this trip. Click here to visit their site .

Your journey is designed with leisure in mind. Dress for comfort and convenience with a wardrobe that is adaptable and allows for layering. Generally, during the day, casual, comfortable, cotton clothing is recommended. Cool weather at higher elevations or at night will require warmer, layered clothing. For the welcome and farewell receptions, casual resort wear is appropriate; formal wear is never required.

All of our hotels offer valet laundry service for a fee except for the Old Faithful Inn, Lake Yellowstone Hotel and The Ranch at Ucross.

We recommend that you pack an adequate supply of your prescription medication in its original container to last through your entire journey, together with a copy of your doctor's prescription or a letter from your health-care provider on office stationery explaining that the medication has been prescribed for you, a list of the generic names of your medication, your travel documents and a change of clothing in your carry-on bag to avoid any inconvenience in the event that your flight or luggage is delayed.

The national park lodges do not have televisions or Internet hook-ups, so bring along a good book to read!

Following is a list of recommended items to pack for your journey to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks:

• Comfortable walking shoes (VERY IMPORTANT)
• Casual daytime wear – shorts, slacks, long and short-sleeved shirts
• Long pants or jeans (long pants and closed-toed shoes are required for the horseback riding)
• Sunglasses, sunscreen, hat
• A light sweater or jacket for higher elevations or a breezy night
• Reusable water bottle
• Insect repellent
• Camera, lenses, batteries, memory cards and chargers
• Lightweight, comfortable, sturdy walking shoes that have already been broken-in
• Travel alarm clock/cell phone with alarm functions (many hotels do not have clocks in the rooms
• Rain poncho and collapsible umbrella
• Reusable zipper-lock bags or other waterproof bags
• Daypack for camera equipment
• Sundries and toiletries that may be difficult to find en route
• A book or e-reader to read in the evening, or downloaded podcasts or video programs to watch during your free time.
• Copies of your travel documents that should be secured in the safe in your hotel room while traveling

10 Things To Do In Grand Teton National Park: Complete Guide To Wyoming's Most Scenic Landscape

F eaturing hundreds of miles of hiking trails, shimmering lakes, and the rugged Teton Range (one of Wyoming's many mountain ranges and a subrange of the Rocky Mountains), Grand Teton National Park is brimming with outdoor adventures. Established in 1929 , the national park features more than 310,000 acres of terrain — from sweeping valleys and meadows to its mountainous peaks — making it the perfect destination for exploring the unrivaled wilds of Wyoming.

Top Things To Do In Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming

Wondering what to do in Grand Teton ? From spellbinding hikes to picturesque overlooks, here are some of the best excursions the Wyoming national park has to offer.

Tour The National Museum of Wildlife Art

Before heading into Grand Teton, visit the National Museum of Wildlife Art, which is located about two miles from the park's entrance in Jackson Hole.

See life-size sculptures of some of the area's most wondrous animals and take in all the wildlife art the museum offers before setting off to the park to see it all in person.

• Address: 2820 Rungius Rd, Jackson, WY 83001
• Hours: Open daily from May 1 to October 31 from 10 am to 5 pm and November 1 to April 30 from Tuesdays to Sundays from 10 am to 5 pm
• Cost: $18 for adults, $16 for seniors, $8 for first child, $4 for additional children (children under the age of four are free)

Get Out On The Waters Of Jenny Lake

One of the most frequented parts of Grand Teton, Jenny Lake sits at the foot of the Teton Range in the heart of the park.

The second-largest lake in the park , spanning about 1,191 acres, visitors can explore the lake's great waters in a multitude of ways, from canoeing and kayaking to boat rides and simply relaxing on the shore.

• Address: Jenny Lake Visitor Center, Moose, WY 83012

Get more information on the area at the Jenny Lake Visitor Center. Located in the historic Crandall Studio, it is situated near the parking area. Check the National Park Service website for seasonal hours.

Explore Hanging Canyon

While at Jenny Lake, hop aboard a boat for a trip to the other side to visit the incredibly remote area known as Hanging Canyon.

Although visitors can hike around the lake to reach the destination (or traverse it via a kayak or canoe), a shuttle boat ride will save about a two-mile hike roundtrip, plus it's a great way to enjoy the serene waters of the lake.

• Address: Jenny Lake Boating, Visitor Center, Jenny Lake, Moose, WY 83012
• Hours: Open daily from 7 am to 7 pm
• Cost: $20 for adults roundtrip and $12 for adults one-way; $12 for children roundtrip and $10 for children one-way (shuttle boat service)

The Jenny Lake Boating service runs about every 10 to 15 minutes throughout the day. Visit the company's website to learn more.

Splash In The Hidden Falls

Another must-see natural wonder on the west side of Jenny Lake is Hidden Falls , a 100-foot cascading waterfall, which can be accessed via a short one-mile out-and-back hike that features about 300 feet of elevation gain.

Continue up the trail about a half mile past Hidden Falls to Inspiration Point , which offers panoramic views of Jenny Lake, the Jackson Hole Valley, and the tallest group of mountains in the Teton Range, the Cathedral Group: Mount Owen, Teewinot, and the Grand Teton.

See The Mormon Row Historic District

Aside from the mountain range itself, arguably one of the most recognizable features of the national park are the John Moulton barn and the T.A. Moulton barn, which were built by brothers on adjacent homesteads.

The two historic barns dot Mormon Row, an area that was settled by Mormon homesteaders looking to establish new communities outside Salt Lake City .

• Address: T.A. Moulton Barn, 13040 Antelope Flats Rd, Moose, WY 83012

Embark On A Hike Through Grand Teton

Some of the best scenic hikes can be found in Grant Teton National Park. And, with more than 250 miles of hiking trails available in the area, including the Woodland Trail Loop, Swan Lake Trail Loop, Bradley Lake Loop, and Jenny Lake Loop, the options are seemingly endless.

Visit the National Park Service's website for a more detailed list of available hikes and to read hiking tips and other important information, such as how high elevation impacts breathing, precautions surrounding coming into contact with bears, and dealing with rapid weather changes.

Take A Scenic Drive Along The Teton Range

In addition to hiking the Teton Range, visitors can buckle up and embark on a scenic drive through the area. Picturesque routes include Jenny Lake Scenic Drive, Moose-Wilson Road, Signal Mountain Summit Road, and Teton Park Road.

Drive slowly in the evening and always be on the lookout for wildlife crossing the road, including elk, bison, and moose. Visit the National Park Service's website for alerts on any road closures in the area.

Catch The Sunrise At Oxbow Bend

Located about a mile east of the Jackson Lake Junction on Highway 89, the Oxbow Bend overlook is one of the best places in the park to catch the sunrise or sunset.

With views overlooking the Snake River and the stunning mountains, the area is also home to a plethora of wildlife, including otters, moose, and bears.

Go Whitewater Rafting Along Snake River

A great option for thrill-seekers, tackle the rushing waters of Snake River via whitewater rafting. Companies like Jackson Hole Whitewater Rafting offer a variety of rafting options, from a 7-Mile Teton Views Scenic Float, available from June 11 through September 30, to a Classic Raft Whitewater Adventure, which runs from May 5 through September 30.

• Address: 945 West Broadway, Jackson, WY
• Cost: Visit the company's website for pricing and to book reservations.

See The View From Signal Mountain

Another place to get captivating views of the entire area is from the stunning summit of Signal Mountain, a 7,727-foot mountain in Jackson Hole that can be accessed by car or via hiking.

If opting for the former, simply drive up Signal Mountain Summit Road to the summit. And for those wanting to make the trek on foot, simply take Signal Mountain Trail from the Signal Mountain Parking Lot all the way up.

The hike to Signal Mountain Summit is a moderately difficult 6.8-mile trail out and back.

Best Time To Visit

Due to harsh weather conditions, many of the park's roads and facilities, including visitor centers, are closed during the winter months (usually beginning in October). So, the best time to visit is from mid-May to late September.

And, the spring and fall months are perhaps more favorable due to the fact that they're less crowded as the summer months can be quite busy.

Best Ways To Get Around

Considering Grand Teton National Park spans more than 310,000 acres, it's far too large to explore all the great sights completely on foot, so the best way to explore Wyoming's natural treasure is definitely by car.

It's imperative that motorists obey all speed limit signs and other traffic signs due to wildlife crossing on the roads, from furry rodents like squirrels to the mammoth bison that freely roam the area.

Tips To Know When Visiting

A good time is all but guaranteed in Grand Teton National Park, but for first-timers visiting the area, there are several things to know to ensure the trip is seamless. First and foremost, plan ahead, especially if planning to visit during the peak season of summer.

Parking lots can also fill up quickly, so try to visit the park before 9 am and after 4 pm to avoid the crowds.

Also, be aware that many parts of the park may be closed during the winter due to harsh weather conditions, including certain roads and facilities. Visit the National Park Service website for information regarding seasonal road closures and other winter weather alerts.

And, last but certainly not least, when it comes to helping keep wildlife wild, respect the wildlife by leaving no trace, driving safely through the park, and not attempting to interact with the animals.

JACKSON, Wyo. — A vital highway linking Wyoming and Idaho communities has reopened three weeks after a massive landslide not far from Grand Teton National Park closed it.

Vehicles returned to Wyoming Highway 22/Teton Pass at noon Friday using a temporary detour to bypass the section that collapsed on June 8 . Construction crews "worked around the clock" over the past three weeks to build the detour, Wyoming Department of Transportation officials said.

"While temporary, this detour safely reconnects communities and gives commuting families their valuable personal time back," Darin Westby, the agency's director, said in a statement.

The section of the highway near milepost 12.8 "catastrophically failed" amid mudslides and landslides that impacted the region during the first week of June . Pictures showed most of the land underneath the highway eroded at one of its turns.

Crews quickly got to work building a temporary route to shorten the time the highway was closed. The initial detour between Jackson, Wyoming and Victor, Idaho , added about an hour in each direction.

The Associated Press reported earlier this week that vehicles will have to slow down to 20 mph through the temporary detour zone, which spans about 600-700 feet through the Caribou-Targhee National Forest.

The section that failed will be reconstructed, Wyoming transportation officials reiterated on Friday. Agency officials said the slide area will remain "continually monitored" as engineers and others work to redesign the roadway. The state is aiming to complete this rebuild "before the worst of winter arrives."

Wyoming officials added the U.S. Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration have been "extremely supportive" with emergency funding. Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon issued an emergency order in relation to the road collapse back on June 8.

Winter | Spring | Summer | Fall

In winter Yellowstone, Grand Tetons,   Bridger-Teton ,   Togwotee Pass , and   Jackson Hole  each have a magic all its own. Snow-covered landscapes, frosty trees, and steamy geysers create a wondrous landscape. Yellowstone’s geyser-fed rivers remain unfrozen, creating a natural winter refuge for thousands of waterfowl, including majestic trumpeter swans. Snowmobilers and cross-country skiers explore the millions of acres of public lands, while nearby downhill ski resorts give visitors a variety of thrills and challenges.

Annual snow accumulations in Yellowstone & Grand Teton National Parks can range as high as 400 inches at 10,000 feet to over 200 inches on the valley floor. These are just a few of the reasons why people from all over the world seek out our “backyard” for their wintertime recreation.

Spring is snowmelt season. Temperatures and weather conditions waver between warm and summery to cool and wintry. Until mid-May when the highways into Yellowstone & Grand Teton National Parks open, this is a quiet time of the year. Rivers begin to fill with snow runoff from the higher peaks (great for whitewater enthusiasts). In the valley, wildflowers begin to dot the landscape. Trout are hungry, flowers poke through the snow, birds return from winter habitats. By Memorial Day, temperatures have usually improved and winter is but a distant memory.

Summer is the time of the year when people in Yellowstone & Grand Teton country spend even more time out of doors than usual. Rivers run full and fast, then later slow and clear. Trails into the mountains open. Lake temperatures rise to a level where the brave can swim or water-ski. The length of the day expands to help us all fit in more  summer activities  such as hiking, biking, camping, kayaking, climbing, fishing, golfing, or whatever summertime pursuit we prefer. The weather usually settles into a delightful pattern of dry, mild days and evenings just cool enough for a pleasant night's sleep.

To escape the hubbub, autumn in Yellowstone & Grand Teton is the right time to visit. Hunting season attracts sportsmen of a different sort on the periphery of Yellowstone, and locals, who have been working double shifts all summer long, now have time to unwind and chat. Fall has increasingly become a time of visitation as many people become aware of the consistent and agreeable weather usually found during September and much of October. The end of October brings the season to an end when Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks close to automobile traffic and the valley gradually slips away to winter as the snow level descends to the valley floor.
