We are talking about going next June, thoughts??? Anytime you can go is awesome. I went the week after Labor Day this past year. I would highly recommend going around that time. We had absolutely no crowds in the Tetons or Yellowstone, everything was still open, the temps were perfect, and the Aspen were in full yellow color.

We are talking about going next June, thoughts??? My wife and I went in June of 2020 and had a great time. This was during Covid so crowds were minimal. You’ll likely have larger crowds in the park so I’d advise planning ahead on where you are going to stay. The locals we talked to out there said typically most hotels/cabins are booked up for the majority of the summer pretty far in advance. Garnier and West Yellowstone are closest to park entrances, Jackson Hole is closest to Grand Teton and you can get to Yellowstone by going through Grand Teton. Jackson Hole will likely be the more expensive place to stay. Weather was perfect until you got to higher elevations. It went from 55 and kind of nice to 45 with 20mph winds and sleet real damn quick when we were hiking close to the continental divide. I say that to just let you know to pack for any type of weather because you may get all the weather in one day out there. Temps down in the lower elevations were 60-70’s. Definitely enjoyed when we went but want to go back in the fall to catch the leaves changing and hopefully see the elk during the rut.

Jackson Hole is closest to Grand Teton and you can get to Yellowstone by going through Grand Teton. Jackson Hole will likely be the more expensive place to stay. We stayed in Wilson, WY. It was a four hour drive from there to YellowStone. We got up early and made the drive. It was easy and scenic. The advice I got was to stay inside YellowStone if that was to be your focus. Simply move around inside the park to various lodges. The other advice was to carry a cooler and pack it accordingly. Anywhere to get food or souvenirs was packed. The cooler was a lifesaver! I can't understate how packed YellowStone was when we went. That damn buffalo chilling on the side of the road caused a 30 min traffic jam. Also, on the way back to Wilson, there was a wreck on the one road coming in/out of the park. We got stuck for a little over an hour. It worked out though as it gave me an excuse to stop at Jenny Lake Lodge and have a beer or ten on the porch there. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/kK6dguC.jpg) ETA: Sorry to hijack your thread! Best trip we ever took and can't wait to get back out there. Extremely jealous.

Big Sky MT is close by and not too crowded as long as it isn't ski season. Plenty of condos and cabins to rent.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

When I was in Glacier last summer. You had to get gate tickets ahead of time of course they were sold out. I was going through gate at 4:30. No one mans the gate till 6. So I just drove right in with numerous others who wanted to beat the rush.

Heading there next summer. Doing a guided backcountry horse pack trip for several days as part of the trip. Hopefully remote enough to see the parts most don't get to see from the roads.

I’m sure anytime would be awesome. We went mid September and I’d highly recommend that time. 1) not very many people were there and 2) the elk were bugling and that was absolutely awesome.

I've been to Yellowstone and Jackson Hole on several occasions and it's amazing....working with the US Forest Service allowed me to get access to some areas that a lot of people will never get to see, it is beautiful and breath taking to say the least.....Jackson Hole can be crowded certain times of the year, but still worth going....I even got a chance to take a few deeps in some of the hot springs in Yellowstone.....by all means, respect the wildlife and everything it has to offer....

So should we stay in the park or in Jackson hole in y’all’s opinions If you can get a reservation in the park I’d say do that. Jackson Hole is about an hour-ish from the entrance to Yellowstone.. now you do have to go through Grand Teton to get there so it’s not a boring drive and there’s a lot that Grand Teton offers, but you’ll maximize time at Yellowstone by not having to make that drive.

I would stay a couple of nights in Jackson then head to west Yellowstone and stay some nights. West Yellowstone is 12miles from the main loop around the park. Basically half way point.
if i hadnt taken up hunting i might have became a juvenile delinquent or worst taken up GOLF
