Download PDF Itinerary Wyoming: Yellowstone & Grand Teton Luxury Adventure Trip Summary Get the best of two magnificent and iconic national parks on this vacation that offers loads of adventure and stunning landscapes. Bike under the shadow of the Grand Teton Mountain Range. Hike among Mammoth Hot Springs’ steaming thermal terraces. Ooh and ahh over an Old Faithful eruption in the Upper Geyser Basin. Tackle the class II & III rapids of the Snake River. And after you’re done getting your fill of the wild natural world, settle down in luxurious lodgings each night just beyond the borders of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. The toughest part is going home.SM Wyoming: Yellowstone & Grand Teton Luxury Adventure Detailed Itinerary Day 1: Bozeman Arrival | Yellowstone National Park | Paradise Valley Bozeman Arrival: Welcome to Montana! Your guides will pick you up in the morning from your pre-trip hotel. Transfer Time: 1 Hour 30 Minutes Yellowstone National Park: Welcome to Yellowstone, our world’s first national park! This famous national park is home to over 60% of the world’s geysers, which periodically erupt in towering explosions of boiling water and steam. And while these astounding phenomena and their neighboring technicolor hot springs and bubbling mud pots draw in the crowds, the surrounding canyons, mountains, forests, and wildlife are no less impressive. Mammoth Hot Springs: The northern part of Yellowstone is home to Mammoth Hot Springs, a must-see feature of the park due to its difference from other thermal areas in Yellowstone. The orange, yellow, brown, and white travertine terraces of Mammoth have been described as looking at a cave turned inside out. We’ll spend time hiking in and around this area, checking out “geology in hyperdrive” up close. Transfer Time: 1 Hour Paradise Valley: A scenic river valley cutting between the Absaroka and Gallatin Mountain ranges, Paradise Valley has been quietly attracting celebrities, ranchers, and fly-fishermen for years - a unique combination of personalities! A short distance from Yellowstone National Parks’ north entrance, this quiet valley is a perfect place to slow down and take in the beautiful scenery one breath at a time. Accommodation: Sage Lodge (L,D) Day 2: Lamar Valley | Paradise Valley Transfer Time: 1 Hour 30 Minutes Lamar Valley Wildlife Drive: Located in the northeastern corner of the park, the Lamar Valley is often called America’s Serengeti due to its easy-to-see population of large animals. Among its most famous inhabitants are several wolf packs, grizzly bears, large herds of bison, pronghorn, elk, eagles, osprey, and coyotes. With a scope and binoculars at hand, we’ll pull off to get “up- close” views of any wildlife we might be lucky enough to spot from a safe distance away. Transfer Time: 1 Hour 30 Minutes The toughest part is going home.SM Sage Lodge Free Afternoon: Choose to embark on a guided hike through the nearby countryside around Sage Lodge, or enjoy the amenities that await you inside and on the property. Relax in the full-service spa, browse the gift shop, or soak in the outdoor hot tub. The afternoon is yours to unwind and rejuvenate. Accommodation: Sage Lodge (B,L,D) Day 3: Grand Canyon of Yellowstone | West Yellowstone Transfer Time: 2 Hours Grand Canyon of Yellowstone: Carved by the wondrous force of the Yellowstone River, the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone is a dramatic, 1,000-foot-deep canyon that dazzles visitors with its pastel rock walls and majestic waterfalls. From several vantage points, you can view Lower Falls plunging steeply into the canyon 308 feet, or the Upper Falls tumbling 109 feet. Wapiti Trail Hike: One of our favorite hikes in the area, Wapiti Trail, takes you 2.5 miles through the backcountry along the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. Wind your way along wildflower- dotted meadows, under lodgepole pine forests, and through an off-the-grid geyser basin before emerging at the rim of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River itself. Eventually, you’ll find yourself staring down the incredible 308-foot Lower Falls from a perfect viewpoint. Transfer Time: 1 hour 15 minutes West Yellowstone, Montana: A Montana town on the edge of the world’s first national park, West Yellowstone serves as the western gateway community to Yellowstone National Park. The quaint downtown is lined with Western false front buildings and is a bit on the touristy side, but its many shops and restaurants lend itself to a great stopover for a night or two. Accommodation: Yellowstone Explorer Cabins (B,L,D) The toughest part is going home.SM Day 4: Old Faithful & Upper Geyser Basin | Jackson Hole Transfer Time: 1 Hour Old Faithful & Upper Geyser Basin Exploration: Discover the Upper Geyser Basin, home to the most famous geyser in the world, Old Faithful. Take some time to explore this area with your knowledgeable guide. Be sure to check out the Old Faithful Inn, the Visitor Center, and the boardwalks winding throughout the basin. Of course, we’ll catch an eruption of Old Faithful itself; this geyser puts on quite the show every ninety minutes or so! Transfer Time: 2 Hours 30 Minutes Jackson Hole: The region of Jackson Hole is made up of the Grand Teton valley including the town of Jackson, Teton Village, Wilson, the Aspens, Moran Junction, Moose and surrounding locations. The name was originally Jackson’s Hole, the “hole” describing the flat valley surrounded by mountains. The charming town of Jackson, the famous hub, is a little bit country and a little bit modern chic with some fun restaurants, bars, and boutiques. Night on Your Own: Enjoy a night on your own this evening for dinner. Your guides will give you restaurant options to choose from in the area and will provide ideas on things to do on your own time. Alternatively, feel free to just relax tonight after a wonderful activity-filled day! Accommodation: Rustic Inn of Jackson Hole (B,L) Day 5: Grand Teton National Park | Snake River Grand Teton National Park: Soak up the beauty of the iconic and picture-perfect Cathedral Group: Nez Perce, Middle Teton, Grand Teton, Mount Owen, and Teewinot as you explore the beauty of Grand Teton National Park. These jagged-toothed peaks soar 7,000 feet above the valley floor and are located on a fault line -- mountains the result of earthquakes. Grand Teton National Park is found just 10 miles south of Yellowstone National Park and comprises 310,000 acres including the Teton Range and most of the northern sections of Jackson Hole. Moose to Jenny Lake Bike Ride: This 16-mile out-and-back bike ride starts off in the community of Moose and continues on to Jenny Lake via paved bike path. You’ll immediately start off with a short, but steep uphill but afterwards, the ride flattens out into an easier cruising speed. You’ll pedal through sagebrush meadows with magnificent views of the Teton Mountain Range. At Jenny Lake, hop off your bike and snap some beautiful photos before pedaling back the way you came. The toughest part is going home.SM Snake River Raft: Get ready to get wet rafting some of Wyoming's finest whitewater through the scenic Snake River Canyon! The Snake River is born out of the Yellowstone National Park backcountry and grows as it winds its way through Jackson Hole, Grand Teton National Park, and eventually the Snake River Canyon. You’ll travel 8 river miles from start to finish and will encounter about 8 sets of rapids ranging from class I and II to class III. Accommodation: Rustic Inn of Jackson Hole (B,L,D) Day 6: Teton Village | Jackson Departure Bridger Gondola & Hike: Take a ride up the Bridger Gondola at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort to experience the high alpine terrain of the Tetons. This 12-minute ride in a safe and private gondola cabin whisks you over 2,700 vertical feet above the valley floor. Take a walk among wildflower meadows, taking in sweeping views of Grand Teton National Park from up high, before riding the gondola back down to the base. Jackson Departure: Your guides will shuttle you to Jackson to get ready for your departure home. Accommodation: (B) *Trip itineraries are subject to change without notice due to road, weather and other factors outside of our control, for the safety and enjoyment of our guests, as deemed necessary and appropriate by Austin Adventures.

  • Glacial Surface Area Change in Grand Teton National Park Jake Edmunds
    Glacial Surface Area change in Grand Teton National Park Jake Edmunds Meriden, Wyoming Glenn Tootle Civil and Architectural Enginnering _________________________________ Introduction: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climatic Change (IPCC) reported that a consensus exists among scientists and policy makers that “…the globally averaged net effect of human activities since 1750 has been one of warming…” (IPCC, 2007). The objective of the proposed research is to investigate glacial change in Grand Teton National Park (GTNP). Remote sensing data was obtained for the GTNP and a preliminary analysis of glacier area change was performed. Since the glaciated regions of GTNP have not been intensely studied in the past, it is essential to understand the past behaviors of the glaciers in the region. This study aims to create a database of quantitative information for the glaciers in GTNP such that future observations may be compared to past observations in an attempt to identify any long term trends of glacier behavior. The research aimed to document glacial surface area change for selected glaciers in the Teton Mountain Range via analysis of aerial photographs (preliminary analysis). Aerial photographs were obtained from the USGS Earth Resources Observation & Science (EROS) Data Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Each image will be analyzed with a photogrammetric (the process of obtaining quantitative information from photographs) approach. The proposed approach involves digitizing and georeferencing each photo using ArcGIS. Once the georeferencing process is performed each glacier can be delineated using an unsupervised classification. Areas of snow and ice tend to have distinct reflectance values in aerial photographs, thus those areas can be delineated using an unsupervised classification.

  • Grand Teton National Park News Release
    National Park Service Grand Teton PO Box 170 U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Moose, Wyoming 83012 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Jackie Skaggs/307.739.3393 January 08, 2010 10-01 Grand Teton National Park News Release Environmental Assessment Available for Public Review on Site Work for Grand Teton National Park Headquarters Rehabilitation Project Grand Teton National Park Superintendent Mary Gibson Scott announced today that the Moose Headquarters Rehabilitation Site Work Environmental Assessment (EA) is now available for public review. This EA will be open to review for 30 days, from January 11 through February 9, 2010. The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to perform site improvements that are designed to enhance visitor services and address employee health and safety deficiencies at Grand Teton National Park’s headquarters area in Moose, Wyoming. The site work would restructure vehicle/pedestrian access points, promote better traffic flow, reduce user-created trails and consolidate pedestrian walkways, and improve way-finding throughout the Moose headquarters complex. The purpose of the proposal is to upgrade and improve conditions in a way that enhances visitors’ experiences while providing a safe, healthy, and functional working/living environment for park employees and their families. The NPS preferred alternative involves the reconfiguration of vehicle and pedestrian traffic within the park administrative area and the Moose river landing access, the removal of several temporary buildings, and restoration work targeted at providing appropriate stormwater management. The proposed improvements are designed to increase visitor and employee safety, refine parking and traffic flow patterns, reduce the built environment, and improve water quality while still preserving the character of the area and protecting natural and cultural resources.

    GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK YOUNGEST RANGE IN THE ROCKIES the town of Moran. Others recognized that dudes winter better than cows and began operating dude ranches. The JY and the Bar BC were established in 1908 and 1912, respectively. By the 1920s, dude ranch- ing made significant contributions to the valley’s economy. At this time some local residents real- ized that scenery and wildlife (especially elk) were valuable resources to be conserved rather than exploited. Evolution of a Dream The birth of present-day Grand Teton National Park involved controversy and a struggle that lasted several decades. Animosity toward expanding governmental control and a perceived loss of individual freedoms fueled anti-park senti- ments in Jackson Hole that nearly derailed estab- lishment of the park. By contrast, Yellowstone National Park benefited from an expedient and near universal agreement for its creation in 1872. The world's first national park took only two years from idea to reality; however Grand Teton National Park evolved through a burdensome process requiring three separate governmental Mt. Moran.

  • Exploring Grand Teton National Park
    05 542850 Ch05.qxd 1/26/04 9:25 AM Page 107 5 Exploring Grand Teton National Park Although Grand Teton National Park is much smaller than Yel- lowstone, there is much more to it than just its peaks, a dozen of which climb to elevations greater than 12,000 feet. The park’s size— 54 miles long, from north to south—allows visitors to get a good look at the highlights in a day or two. But you’d be missing a great deal: the beautiful views from its trails, an exciting float on the Snake River, the watersports paradise that is Jackson Lake. Whether your trip is half a day or 2 weeks, the park’s proximity to the town of Jackson allows for an interesting trip that combines the outdoors with the urbane. You can descend Grand Teton and be living it up at the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar or dining in a fine restaurant that evening. The next day, you can return to the peace of the park without much effort at all. 1 Essentials ACCESS/ENTRY POINTS Grand Teton National Park runs along a north-south axis, bordered on the west by the omnipresent Teton Range. Teton Park Road, the primary thoroughfare, skirts along the lakes at the mountains’ base. From the north, you can enter the park from Yellowstone National Park, which is linked to Grand Teton by the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway (U.S. Hwy. 89/191/287), an 8-mile stretch of highway, along which you might see wildlife through the trees, some still bare and black- ened from the 1988 fires.
