Involve These Recommendations While Planning a Trip to Yellowstone!



When you're preparing a journey to Yellowstone National Park, you might also take in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Grand Teton National Park. The rationale for this is two-fold. If you're flying, the closest airport to Yellowstone is the Jackson Hole Airport. Plus, sights of the Teton Mountains are out of this world. So, you get first-rate accommodations in a Jackson Hole lodge and get to observe the first national park established in the U.S. at Yellowstone.


Even though you wake up very early, don't forget to include the Sunrise in Grand Teton National Park when you're planning a trip to Yellowstone. This four-hour tour is guided by an expert biologist who fills you in on the flora and animals in the Tetons. Black bear, grizzlies, moose, bison, elk and mule deer are just some of 
the inhabitants. Other prospects consist of pronghorn, bighorn sheep, coyote, gray wolf, red fox, mountain lion, Canada lynx and bobcat. Birds include the Greater Sage Grouse, Barrow's Goldeneye duck, Great Gray Owl, American Dipper, Clark's Nutcracker, Western Tanager, osprey and Bald Eagle, just to name a few. Transportation on this morning quest is a vehicle with a retracting roof and sliding windows. Binoculars and a spotting scope are circulated for distance views of animals, plants and mountain sides.

Of course, there’s an on-time geothermal geyser that you must include when planning a trip to Yellowstone, which makes the Old Faithful Yellowstone National Park Adventure a perfect selection. An early 6 a.m. start is needed in order to drive through the south entrance of Yellowstone National Park to Old Faithful. This cone geyser shoots steam and water as much as 185 feet into the air every 91 minutes.

Add These Terrific Things to do in Yellowstone Park

Do amazing things in Yellowstone!!



Whether you're going to Yellowstone National Park in the winter or in summer, you can check out many wildlife and watch geysers pumping steamy water into the air. From seeing the grizzlies and wolves at the top of the food chain to snowmobiling on park trails in the wintertime, you'll be blown away at the unique tourism activities offered to you.



Since grizzly bears living south of the Canadian/U. S. border were listed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 1975 as a threatened species, their numbers have expanded. In 1975 there were 136 grizzlies in the 14 million acres known as the Greater Yellowstone Area (GYA), that includes Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, plus surrounding National Forest lands and neighboring private land and ranches. The most recent grizzly count in 2010 generated 602 bears. Wolf numbers have observed similar expansions, with no breeding wolf pairs known to inhabit Yellowstone in the 1990s to 98 wolves in 10 packs in Yellowstone by 2011. There's no question that when you take the two-day Yellowstone Predators Photo Tour, you're going to come away with the thrill of a lifetime.
