Grand Teton National Park
Grand Teton National Park features over 300,000 acres of mountains, wildlife, alpine meadows, glaciers, coniferous forests, and granite pinnacles. The jagged peaks of the Teton Range rise over 7,000 feet from the beautiful valley floor and their reflection is nearly picture perfect in the stunning alpine lakes. Combine these majestic mountains with the Snake River which winds its way through the valley and this breathtaking scene is complete. Visitors can enjoy hiking, camping and RV parks, fishing, rock climbing, boating, and horseback riding.
Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area
Located in the southwest corner of Wyoming and the northeast corner of Utah, Flaming Gorge is made up of beautiful deep canyons, the Green River, and an enormous artificial lake- all surrounded by a desert-like landscape. As part of the Ashley National Forest, there are a variety of recreational options available including rock climbing, swimming, fishing, boating, and hiking as well as wildlife encounters with antelope, rabbits, and bighorn sheep.
Lower Yellowstone Falls
Perhaps the most popular waterfall located within Yellowstone National Park, Lower Yellowstone Falls is the tallest waterfall in the park at an impressive 308 feet. Located inside the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, this majestic waterfall joined with the incredible canyon views is a dream setting. Visitors can get an up close and personal view of the falls from the Brink of the Lower Falls, however, there are many fantastic vantage points around the canyon such as Red Rock Point and Lookout Point.
Devils Tower National Monument
Devils Tower rises over 1,200 feet from the beautiful prairie land of the Black Hills and holds great spiritual significance for the Lakota people and a number of other tribes in the surrounding area. Many visitors try their hand at climbing this striking monolith every year as well as exploring diverse fauna and wildlife, hiking, and camping.
Red Canyon
Red Canyon was formed nearly 60 million years ago due to erosion and boasts colorful red and orange sandstone formations surrounded by beautiful rolling plains. This area is home to an abundance of wildlife and provides a great place to hike, fish, and take in the spectacular views.
