Led by a naturalist guide, this experience includes transportation, meals, and essential gear, making it perfect for all skill levels. Discover nature's wonders while creating lasting memories.
We’ll start by exploring Grand Teton National Park by vehicle to spot wildlife in the early morning light. We’ll visit mixed habitats and look for a wide range of animals, raptors and birds. Then experience a great hike in the mountains surrounding Jackson Hole. Our hike will focus on learning about natural habitats, animal behavior, birds and wildflowers. Naturalist guide, transportation from a convenient meeting place, binoculars, spotting scope, water bottles, light breakfast, picnic lunch and trail snacks are included.
The high-elevation mountains and valleys of Wyoming and Idaho can bring a full range of weather on any given day of the year. It is not uncommon to see a 40 degree temperature change either. Layered, non-cotton clothing and appropriate outerwear is the key to staying comfortable in the mountains. Also note that freezing, windy weather can occur even in July and August. For your comfort and safety, please follow this list carefully. If you have questions, don’t hesitate to consult with us. And be sure to bring your camera!
We provide: Naturalist guide, transportation, bottled water, snacks or lunch, binoculars, guidebooks, butterfly nets, complimentary children’s activity book for all youngsters, backpacks, waistpacks, rain ponchos, and water filters.
You bring: An extra warm upper layer in case temperatures get cool while you are in the mountains. Be sure to wear sturdy hiking shoes or boot. We provide rain ponchos but if you are planning an all day trip, personal rain gear is nice to bring. A personal water bottle if you have one to reduce the use of plastic bottles.
Weather in the mountains can change quickly, so layering ensures comfort throughout the day.
Binoculars improve wildlife viewing chances and enhance your experience of distant animals.
Protect the environment and stay safe by sticking to designated hiking paths.
Dawn is prime wildlife time and offers the best lighting for scenic photographs.
