Running 62 km around Grand Teton National Park - GRAND TETON LOOP
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ค. 2023
- Grand Teton National Park is a stunning and iconic park, known for its majestic Teton Range, beautiful lakes, and diverse wildlife. In July of 2022, we made a stop on our way back to Canada while on a road trip to Colorado, so that we could run a 38 mile / 62 km loop around the park, which mile for mile would be one of the most scenic and beautiful routes we've ever run.

Popping in to share how much I appreciated Audrée's comments on how PMS was influencing her day. My daughter was sitting next to me, and as she gets older she has so many questions. Really helpful for her to hear someone speaking about it so candidly. Helps to normalize it and remove the stigma. A great role model!
Agree!
The fact that Audree is doing all that with PMS, she deserves all the french fries in the restaurant!
Great video as alway - that bear appeared right on cue! Having just finished a hiking trek across the whole of Switzerland where I live, watching your videos (and I must say Audree in particular as my female role model!) have inspired me to ditch the heavy pack and give trail running a good go! Bought myself my first pair of proper trail runners last week - wish me luck!
Thanks Audree for candidly bringing in the female perspective into trail running and adventuring.
I mean! This was truly stunning!!! 😍😍 Literally it had everything in one video, absolutely loved it!
13:37 - well done Audree! I wish there were more honest accounts of how PMS and the days before your period can really impact your performance.
Also, arm sleeves for the win, absolute must for me!!
Beautiful, beautiful video, as always, if not better! You sure fell for the beautiful scenery, Jeff. And thank you for making allowance for Audree, who is so real about how her cycle was affecting her energy output. Thank you for sharing a stunning trail with us.
Spent my Saturday night rewatching your UTMB fast pack hike which was so amazingly beautiful and then watched this spectacular run. Thank you for taking me around the world once again. So awesome and inspiring! Hats off to Audree too for her honesty about her PMS! I remember those days, ugh! She’s trooper and I just love her!
"Is the camera ok?" haha glad you're ok as well
Oh my god that was beautiful , thank you , Audrée is a real trooper and how nice of you to pretend to fall on your face to make her laugh and aleviate her suffering just a bit lol 😄... anyways , nature is a magical place , cruel at times yes but oh so beautiful , thanks again for sharing all that with us ! 👍
Wow, what a beautiful place! Have to agree, I get really peeved when people say ‘oh trail runners just miss everything moving too fast.’ Nonsense! When you’re running you notice *everything*. Fun fact: we also have a few ‘boob mountains’ here in Tasmania ;-) They’re not named as such, but they sure look like ‘em 😂
Me, every time Jeff Pelletier publishes a new film: "Well, now that's my new favorite." : )
Love your videos! Deep respect for Audree who never complains and is always smiling. Hope you're ok Jeff after your tumble. Can be quite scary with those tight mountain trails. Beautiful sights there. we were next door in Yellowstone a couple of years ago, but the Tetons are something else. Thanks for sharing!
Nice to know I am not alone in feeling tired and cranky couple days before my period! Some people seem to dismiss PMS, but it is real and it can have quite an effect on people who have it. Yet an other gorgeous video, I am quite sure I’ll binge them all these next couple of days 😊
“Up and at them!” Way to slip in a nice Simpsons reference, Jeff! 😂
Amazing film. Beautiful place!
Nice catch!
Love your discussions about back country safety. Being from Calgary, I see too many people in the local mountains that disregard or aren’t aware of how to safeguard themselves and the wildlife. Thanks for it!
A runner was killed by a bear in northen italy a couple of weeks back. It happens unfortunatly😢
What a beautiful trail! The tumble was classic! I love how you out the camera safely before yours 😂
I like how when you fell down, the first thing you cared about was your gopro, haha!. Also btw AMAZING film as always!
I love your videos and you make me feel so encouraged to get out on the trail…. With that being said as soon as I see a bear I’d want to call my run immediately 😭
The problem with your incredible videos is that my bucket list keeps growing!! The scenery on this trail was exceptional and I enjoyed every minute. Thank you for continuing to share your and Audree's adventures.
Living vicariously here. Just found your channel. At 64 with bad knees, I so enjoy your trail running to places I can’t go. Grand Teton NP is my favorite. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Awesome cinematography, wow! I will be doing a training block in wildlife estate in South Africa which evidently has 12 or so resident leopards. People will think I’m a loon, but I’m gonna be shouting “Hey Leopard”! 😅
I've been a fan of your films for a few years. Your variety of instructional videos on trail running topics were very helpful as I was training for my first ultra--and they still are! I personally think your wheelhouse, maybe more than other trail running youtubers, are these kinds of films that use trail running as a way to showcase the terroir and on-the-ground adventure of specific places and routes. There's a lot of great content out there but I don't know if anyone has your ability to enable viewers to get a sense of the specific experiences of running in the Tetons, Alps, Fells, etc. Beautiful stuff man, thank you. Also, I tripped and fell running on the CDT (CO) yesterday and I'm just impressed at your composure and lack of expletives haha. Cheers Jeff. -Evan
I live a couple hours from Jenny Lake and trail run quite often. Those mountains are just full with Bear. It's awesome but is a little nerve racking when your out running. I'm always shouting and lookin over my shoulders. Lol. I'll have to check out that loop you guys found. Looks amazing. Great video.
Hey Jeff. I genuinely can’t thank you enough for sharing this run. My wife an I drove past the Teton range back in ‘15 after we visited Yellowstone and were driving back down to Denver to fly home to the UK and we both said how incredible they looked and while watching your journey through the range must pale in comparison to actually being there in person, the whole thing from the epic views and scenery to the amazing flora and fauna was simply amazing to watch. ❤
Great!... Now I want to run the Grand Teton Loop! How cool!!!
That older guy at the cabin, he has been at that cabin each of the three times I've been there. Interesting guy to talk to because he has been in that area for many years. I've drank water from the well near the cabin, hammocked in front of it and camped near it. Good memories of that area.
OK well now I guess I have to go to Teton national Park. Spectacular. Thank you for the trip.
A yard sale compilation has to be forthcoming 😂
Hah, fortunately I don't have enough of those for a compilation yet. Maybe a 'petting dogs' compilation instead?
8pm my time, perfect post dinner viewing!
You are THE most fortunate runners in the world. Soooooooooo beautiful thank you for sharing
“Is the camera okay?” 😂 classic filmmaker response after a good wipeout! Great video guys
Wouldn't be a trip to WY without experiencing that infamous wind! Great route!
Small world, my wife and I were in Grand Teton just a couple of days later after you filmed this. Thanks for sharing -- amazing scenery, a lot more than we were able to cover when we were there. Maybe next time 🙂.
It is genuinely such a treat and gift that you two so consistently and eagerly share your adventures with us! ❤
Amazing trails, really beautiful mountains, love the music too, am glad you didn't edit out your fall, keep on running.
Nothing more relaxing and inspiring than watching a fresh jeff & audree video drop!
Thanks for taking me back to the trails I can no longer travel, I was just going to watch for a minute to see the route you picked for your 62K but I couldn't stop watching. I still live in the area, 36 years now but only can view from the valley today. You 6 waterfall spot up cascade looked like something I should try anyway.
You missed my favorite part though, you must return for the Paintbrush-cascade Loop so you can see Lake Solitude. If you do so I'd ascend up cascade so you can get the new view of it. Cheers, and happy trails. PS, I worry about your knees when you are 60.
Thanks for the tip! We’re definitely planning to return one day soon, so I’ll be sure to check out that other Loop.
This trail is amazing for backpacking. We stayed at the cliff you mentioned our second night and it was one of the best places I’ve stayed. There’s something about slowing down and enjoying a beautiful area like that.
So impressed with the quality of your videos, the content, commentary etc are just so spot on. I'm a big fan of the Teton's after passing them when my family and I moved from Calgary to Mexico back in 2018. I'll visit them one day and this just gave me an extra incentive, Thank you.
Your two are so inspiring. Your runs, travels, attitude, video production. Everything is top notch.
Absolutely Beautiful I will be Backpacking this same Loop in Sept 2023 and Can't wait to experience the Beauty Personally
Amazing as always! Jeff - I love all your films and regularly post thankful comments, so I hope you'll hear the smile in my voice when I say the favourite moment for me in this film is when the bear crosses the trail behind you guys and you literally sprint faster than I've ever seen you move leaving Audree struggling with her coat!!
Keep having fun adventures and taking us along for the ride, and as a father of two girls, Audree - thank you for talking about your period and how it affects you, it''s ridiculous to have something that half the population experience but people feel they can't mention.
I'm with you on the alpine creeks! That was an amazing circuit and it really can't have been easy to be at altitude either (though I guess if you'd been exploring in Colorado you might have been able to acclimatize somewhat). The trails look so good, especially that one across the boulder field - they put those in BC to shame!
On the bucket list, straight to the top!
Amen to that!!!
You both are so strong doing this. What views!
Very nice thought about criticism over trail runners not enjoying the views. People who say that maybe think of elite runners in a competition. It certainly doesn't apply to amateurs on a training day.
Great images as always! Love your work
This video was absolutely beautiful from beginning to end! And now I want to do it too. Guess I need to do some planning😁Thanks for for the inspiration.
Looks like paradise :)
Just watched this film. What a beautiful job filming a beautiful adventure! I visited the Grand Tetons decades ago; never forgot the beauty of the area. I know I'll be watching this video on the treadmill lol. Thank you!
Wow that was some route Jeff!! Another place added to the list.
Tetons are among my favorite places in the world. Glad to see it here. The peak of rendezvous is my happy place.
Once again, great video! The footage is amazing. Thanks to Audrée for sharing her experience running with PMS, it's not often talked about but something we deal with monthly. Adding this trail to my list!
I am blown away at how awe inspiring your videos are. I also appreciate how honest you are in the videos. I visited this park in 2013 before we really knew much about this area. I didn't get to see any of this side of the park and it really makes me want to revisit this area to see it again. Thanks again for sharing!
Very well done! The Tetons surely pack a punch and it's quite the slog from the cabin to the top of Static. Followed a similar line a few years ago w/ my son while backpacking. Porcupines munched the cork handles of my poles and had a face to face meeting with a momma moose and calf on a very narrow section of the Death Canyon Trail. New Sub
Probably the most beautiful video you have done Jeff. Would love to run that trail (were it not for the bears)!
Jeff, I am totally mesmerized by all your videos. What a wonderful job you have done. Congratulations and a big thanks. As a former runner, your videos are certainly a tremendous inspiration to me.
I will go back to the trails and run again.
Thank you kindly.
Cheers
great advice about the snout of black bear eh. i knew they could be many shades but i thought the shoulder hump was fool proof 😅
Absolutely Stunning
Thanks for taking us along. We hiked the Teton Crest Trail last year and also went down the Cascade trail. At the 30:03 mark you captured part of a rock wall built by the trail crews, they do some beautiful trail construction in Grand Teton NP. That wall looks like art when you see it in person.
GoPro should totally use that small bit of the video for an ad, lol! "Are you okay, GoPro?" Glad you're okay, Jeff! ! Beautiful video, as always!
I've been waiting for this one for a while - can't wait 😀
I am headed to Grand Teton this fall. This makes me even more excited for it!
Great editing and cinematography. Well done!
I immediately recalled the Death Canyon cabin we hiked past in 2021 :) great video as always! The route is spectacular as well.
If you ever decide to sell desktop backgrounds…WOW. That shot over Taggart (sp) Lake - amazing
This is one of the most beautiful videos ever. Thanks 🙏🏼
Per usual, the best running films on TH-cam and perhaps out there .
Thanks for another look into an amazing landscape I would never have been able to see without your fantastic filming; the personal touch of you both makes it so close that you can feel the experience. It seems almost easy until you realise what you in fact have accomplished in this 1 day run ! What a gifted tough cookies and athletes !
What a spectacular place. Beautifully filmed. Thank you.
Another really beautiful film!
A genuine thanks from a new subscriber, your content is outstanding. Have been watching your videos while on the treadmill, perfect solution for days I can’t run on trail. Working towards my first 100k attempt, 6 weeks from now. Your efforts are very inspiring. Thanks again, and happy trails!
That was AMAZING! Thank you thank you thank you! I didn’t know there was such a thing encircling the Tetons. I HAVE TO get in the kind of shape to do that! That would be an epic memory!
Just finished watching with my son. We’ve loved watching all your videos.
Congratulations on the Bob Graham Also!
Thanks so much! I’m committed to keeping my content family-friendly as well.
High quality adventure/trail running video. Definitely the best in class. I like the tips along the way for wildlife, gear, route planning and h2o/nutrition.
This was INCREDIBLE!! Im adding this to my bucket list, Wow!!
Wow, beautiful area! Gorgeous film ! Really enjoyed this 😊😊
Wow, such a scenic trail, just stunning! Kind of reminds me of the Dolomites.
I always watch full video starting to till last second and always motivate myself and always enjoyed ,have a good day ❤
I just love your videos…this one in particular is hitting all the right feels with the music choices. I’ll probably play this one again and again for that alone!
Jeff we appreciate your dedication to your craft even if it comes at the expense to your health 😂 stay safe, so we can continue to enjoy these amazing videos. Hope the hand healed up well. ❤️
Another fantastic running film! My family had a great time with Vagabond a couple weeks ago running the TMB! Inspired by your videos! Cheers!
A beautiful film through and through. The nature is astonishing, trails are super well maintained, love your attitude and the carefree music. 35 minutes well spent. Thanks
Stunning landscape! Beautifully filmed. You could imagine it pretty unchanged from the 1820s.
I think your point about running being a great balance as a pace that allows you to travel through more of a landscape in a day than walking, but still at a slow enough pace that allows you to appreciate even quite small things, it being easy to stop. Driving or cycling might be too fast, but running is perfect. Wish I had your legs!
I did the Teton Crest trail earlier this summer, and the views were absolutely beautiful. Loved watching this and getting to re-see the beauty of the tetons. Thanks for the nostalgia!
This has been one of my favorite videos. Thank you Jeff and Audrée for the effort to show us these wonderful places. Abrazos!!!
Great video, thank you for posting.
My favorite thing about my Solomon vest is how I can keep bear spray in place of one of the soft flasks!
Amazing footage. Thanks Jeff and Audrée!!!
Great video as usual ! The scenery and the wildlife are amazing ! Btw, the "tétons" in french is not primarily a slang, but the equivalent of "nipples".
Stunning scenery, that was worth the wait! Thanks for squeezing it in, amid all the Europeans activities. The Alps sure do look awesome, too, but it's great to see areas closer to home (ie, North America) for ideas and inspiration to get out there. Although, now I want to visit the Alps, too.
Impressive that you were able to run 38 miles up and down at Grand Tetons in one day. My daughter is a marathon runner and also likes to run in the mountains. Thanks for sharing your video.
Incredible video Jeff….. the scenery…..SPLENDID! Your wife, did a super job running that course , as well as yourself. Thanks again for another awesome video. Keep er’ coming 😀👍.
Perfect timing for some inspiration for my Sunday long run!
Bucket List run for me for sure! The way you explained Trail Running at the end was Eloquent and spot on
Very well done video by you both. I’d love to run this. Those bears scare me though.
Wow, great video! Now I need to go here and run it!
This was beautiful. Thank you for these videos.
Wonderful video, what a stunning place! You are so lucky to experience the beauty of those places first hand 👌
awesome!! some treadmill entertainment!!!
