Best seasons for Teton or Yellowstone trips?
June through September is the prime time for visiting Jackson Hole and the surrounding area. July and August are our warmest months, but are also the main tourist season. September is my favorite time in Jackson Hole with golden aspen groves contrasting with adjacent coniferous forests and orange cottonwoods lining the rivers and streams the elk are bugling (breeding season), so wildlife is especially wonderful. May and October can be nice, but rain or snow are more likely (Im not kidding). With our high elevation (over 6000), our winters are six-months long, more or less the skiing is great but everything is buried under snow and most of the roads into the parks are closed. Earth Tours leads trips from mid June through September if you are interested in other dates, please inquire to see if a special trip can be arranged.
