GRAND TETONS NATIONAL PARK MUST SEE SITES AND TIPS!!

Wow! Where to even start. Kim and I have been on many adventures but this one tops them all. Traveling to the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Parks was magical. We saw every type of wildlife and went on some of the most beautiful hikes imaginable. We were up for sunrise and stayed for sunset every single day. We couldn't get enough. We hope you enjoy this one as it was a fun one to create. Getting to relive some of the moments again was fantastic. Seeing the famous bear 610 and her cubs, seeing moose, bison, deer, antelope, coyotes, etc. leaves you almost speechless. To all our subscribers thank you for your support. You mean the world to us.

Mountains of the Imagination
Rising above a scene rich with extraordinary wildlife, pristine lakes, and alpine terrain, the Teton Range stands as a monument to the people who fought to protect it. These are mountains of the imagination. Mountains that led to the creation of Grand Teton National Park where you can explore over two hundred miles of trails, float the Snake River, and enjoy the serenity of this remarkable place.

Few landscapes in the world are as striking and memorable as that of Grand Teton National Park. Grand Teton has a lot to offer, whatever your interests. Mountains, valleys, lakes, rivers, and skies are home to diverse and abundant forests, wildflowers and wildlife. The park also has a rich cultural history with old homesteads and cattle ranches to explore and photograph. Walk on a trail built by the Civilian Conservation Corps or one that American Indians or fur trappers might have used in the 1820s. Ride a bike or paddle a canoe. There is something for everyone.

Wildlife is never far in Grand Teton National Park. High in the mountains, a yellow-bellied marmot whistles a warning as a golden eagle soars above. Searching for insect larvae, a black bear rips into a rotten lodgepole pine log. On the valley floor, a herd of bison graze as a coyote trots through the sagebrush, looking for a meal. Along the Snake River, an osprey dives into the water with talons extended, rising with a cutthroat trout. In a nearby meadow, a moose browses the tender buds of willows growing in this rich environment.

Animals are interconnected. They relate to and shape the environment where they survive. Some of these relationships are obvious, while others are less so. These relationships and connections cross park boundaries. Grand Teton National Park's 310,000 acres lie at the heart of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem encompasses over twenty million acres and is considered one of the few remaining, nearly intact, temperate ecosystems on Earth. The animals inhabiting Grand Teton National Park depend on this vast area for survival, residing in and migrating to different areas depending on the season.

Hiking in Grand Teton National Park can be a challenging experience due to the rugged nature of the landscape, including high elevation, steep trails and extreme and sudden weather changes. Stop by a visitor center to talk to a ranger about recent trail conditions.

The Teton Range towers over the valley of Jackson Hole, providing dramatic alpine scenery and drawing millions of visitors to Grand Teton National Park each year. Over billions of years, natural forces including earthquakes, glaciers and erosion have shaped this magnificent landscape.

The arrival of autumn breathes new life into Grand Teton National Park. As the heat of summer slowly gives way to the cooler months of fall, changes may be seen across the park. The bright green leaves of the aspens become vibrant yellow; the sun, once bright until late in the evening, sinks below the horizon earlier each day; cool breezes and frequent rain showers wash away the haze of summer.

For many animals, fall is the time to migrate to their winter grounds. Bison, pronghorn move east, and elk begin moving south. Grand Teton is a corridor for many of these animals, and they follow the same path their ancestors took thousands of years before.
.
Members of the ungulate family – such as elk, deer, and moose – find their mates during the fall months. Listen for elk bugles in the park-a key sign of fall. Bull elk will gather harems of cow elk, then challenge other males to establish dominance.
