Hey buddy. They make you stand out front here all day long? That's not right.
I think Grand Teton National Park is probably the most visually stunning national park that
we have been to so far and in no particular order we're going to show you the 10 stops we
were able to get to in just two days. So sit back and enjoy Grand Teton National Park.
We traveled from north to south just finishing up at Yellowstone National Park when we headed
into Grand Teton and the first stop we made was the Coulter Bay area and there's a visitor center
there and one of the more popular trails that's quite easy is Lakeshore Trail and I would just
tell you that the views from the Lakeshore Trail are some of the very best that you will see
in all of Grand Teton National Park. Look at this view right off the trail.
You can see that the Lakeshore Trail is really pretty easy. There's not a lot of elevation gain.
I would consider it very family friendly and then when you're done you're going to want to
head around the corner about a mile or two away to Leakes Marina and this was one of the favorite
stops we made on the whole trip was just going to their pizzeria and having pizza right on the lake
looking out at the Tetons. Jackson Lake Lodge is a great stop. Hopefully you get the opportunity
to stay there but if not at least take in one of the beautiful sunsets right there from Jackson
Lake Lodge. Next up was sunrise at Schwab Archer Landing. This was the number one thing we were
looking forward to going on this trip and it did not disappoint. We even got to see a moose while
we were getting the cameras set up to capture the sunrise on time lapse. It was unbelievable and I'll
just tell you this is probably one of the most beautiful scenes I have ever seen. It is really
like you're in a screensaver. Absolutely stunning. When you're done with the beautiful sunrise there
at Schwab Archer Landing it is just a short drive over to Mormon Row and this is where you can
capture that iconic scene with the molten barn. Next up for us was to go and explore the Jenny
Lake area and you can see immediately why this is such a popular stop at Grand Teton National Park
and we definitely recommend taking the boat ferry over to the trailhead.
ferry right there on the other side of Jenny Lake we hiked on up to Hidden Falls and this is the
most impressive waterfall that we saw at Grand Teton National Park. I would put this in my top
five waterfalls I have seen ever at a national park. After seeing Hidden Falls we would recommend
that you get back on the trail and hike all the way to Cascade Canyon. That's what we did and
you'll take in some great views along the way. You'll pass Inspiration Point which is a great
stop if you need a rest but the hike all the way to Cascade Canyon was the very best hike we did
on the whole trip at Grand Teton National Park. As you come around this last bend into Cascade Canyon
this is the area that you'd want to pay attention. You might get to see a moose down by the creek
even though we didn't that day this is the area where most people tell us that they see them.
Our next stop was the Snake River Overlook and this is the famous stop that Ansel Adams the
photographer took of the Snake River and it's a famous black and white. They have it on display
right there that you can check out and you can kind of recapture it yourself as you're standing
there and it's really cool. The trees have kind of grown up around the river but you can almost
duplicate the very moment that he captured at Grand Teton National Park. Next up for us was
Oxbow Bend and if you're into photography at all you know this is one of the more popular stops at
Grand Teton National Park. I recommend trying to hit it at a couple different moments in time.
We enjoyed it in the afternoon but I did get to go back and capture it at sunrise as well.
No trip to Grand Teton National Park is complete without spending a little bit of time down in
Jackson Hole Wyoming and I recommend going up to the Teton Pass because you get a beautiful view
down into the valley there to see Jackson. But the shops are amazing, the restaurants are wonderful,
there's a lot of activities that you can do in and around Jackson. It's definitely worth spending a
bit of an afternoon there and taking it all in. We really enjoyed our time in Jackson as a part
of our trip to Grand Teton National Park. We actually flew home from Jackson Airport. If
you've never taken off from Jackson Airport the views of the Tetons from the plane are absolutely
amazing. Well we hope our list of stops encourages you and inspires you to go check out Grand Teton
National Park. If we can help you with any of your planning please ask us any questions you might have
