Excellent video. I particularly enjoyed the pictures that you inserted throughout. Excellent editing. We’re visiting the Tetons mid-Sept this year. We’ll have a handicap sign for our car. Are there sufficient handicap parking spots, especially at Jenny Lake?😊
Love your videos. I have reservations at Madison for 5 nights but I can't find anything for Grand Tetons. Hopefully I can get lucky when I get to Yellowstone
Ash, thank you so much for this video, it is a great resource. I’m making my way to the Tetons as I type this, (Nov 10, 2023). Plan on spending a couple nights boondocking around the south end of the park, Jackson, so I can get into the park early Monday morning. Would love to get some sunrise photos and early morning wildlife photos. Are the gates open for vehicle traffic 24/7?
Thanks for your work on this! Planning a trip to GTNP next year and looking to camp. With the 6-month reservation system, if I want to get a site for multiple nights, would you recommend reserving the site 1 night at a time as it becomes available 6 months ahead? It sounds hardcore but I am prepared to “camp out” on the website multiple days in a row to make sure I get my site!!
You'll find a camping video for Grand Teton here on my channel, so I would watch that for sure. But no, you only need to be there the first night it opens up, and then you can book multiple nights at that time!
Hey Ash! You do amazing work! Thank you so much! I’m planning a honeymoon the week of Labor Day and we would like to go to a national park. However, we also want to have access to a town where we could get dressed and have nice romantic dinners and lay back a bit. Was thinking of staying at Jackson Hole and visiting Teton daily. Do you agree? Any other ideas you think I should look into?
Great information, Ash! But did you only use still pics in your video because uploading non-permitted video to TH-cam is now illegal? As I watched, I slowly came to that realization... 😞🇺🇲 Can't wait to see Teton in July. On the plus side, we survived the Glacier Vehicle reservation drop on March 1, so we can get in there!
Woohoo, glad you got your Glacier reservations! I actually just don't do much video recording in the parks in general...personal preference because I don't like taking videos to take over my experience while I'm there. But I do hope that they figure out a way to allow people to use video without needing a special permit...that doesn't make much sense to me if you're not bringing in a whole crew :(
Excellent video! My family will be doing Paintbrush Canyon/Cascade Canyon Loop in Late August this year. I am seeing some people online suggesting Ice cleats/microspikes. Do you have an opinion on if these are necessary? Thanks in advance
By late August you should be ok, but the Jenny Lake Rangers have a website that they update with snow conditions, so you can check that. But by late August, you shouldn't need any special equipment to hike that trail. Have fun!
Hi.. My son and I secured one night in Death Canyon, and will stay in Alaska Basin to complete the Death Canyon loop.. We will get to a ranger station two hours before they open to try and get a night in Upper Paintbrush Canyon so we can do the Paintbrush/Cascade loop… What do you think our chances are of getting a night in either Upper Paintbrush or the North Fork Cascade area?? Thanks for your information!😊
We are heading out for our first time end of July! Hitting Tetons, Yellowstone, Badlands and Sturgis. Can’t wait to ride the motorcycle thru these majestic mountains!! Safe travels!!
When we were at the Grand Tetons, it rained the first day. The second day was cold, so we didn't ride the bike either day. However, July should be better. Now, when we were at Yellowstone, we witnessed some aggressive drivers during the two days we were there. Be careful and enjoy.
Grand Teton was my first National Park hiking experience. Beautiful is an understatement.
It's amazing and truly has some of the best hiking trails in the country!
Thank's a lot for your really helpful tips! Greetings from Hamburg, Germany: We are looking forward to visit this gorgeous park.
You're welcome! Have an amazing trip!
I agree. Love this park.
Such a good one!

Yes, there are quite a few at Jenny Lake. Have an amazing trip!

Yes! As long as the road is open, you can get through the entrance at any time. Enjoy!

Yes! Grand Teton is a perfect park for that!

Awesome video as always! Are all roads open in the end of April?
The Inner Park Road doesn't usually open until the beginning of May. The Outer Road stays open year-round, weather permitting!

@@DirtInMyShoes I will give it a look, thank you for the swift response. Enjoy the holiday!
Hi Ash , going on a trip in April ! Plz advice on weather gears , some hikes with my 15 years & maybe biking to places.
You'll find all of that info at dirtinmyshoes.com I have a bunch of articles for that!
Do you know if Grand Teton currently has a timed entry reservation?
It doesn't!
Last year I purchased a turbine advertised as 400W, in reality 4.6W ! yay

That's so exciting! Paintbrush is super competitive, but I'm crossing my fingers for you!
We are heading to Grand Teton in a couple weeks. Do I really need to carry bear spray?
The bears are out and active!
If you come to String Lake look us up Rush and Lola Songer one of Jess's kids. We are String Lakers.
Very cool!
Is a motorcycle a good way to explore the Grand Tetons?
Absolutely!
Thanks
