My buddy messed up big time and booked the Airbnb at Grand Lake instead of Estes ;( I’ve been looking forward to Chasm lake for so long.
Is there any chance of Trail Ridge Road opening this weekend despite conditions?
My gf and I just finished booking accommodations for Yellowstone/Grand Teton. Advice on what makes sense given our routes and what are must sees would be appreciated!
Night 1 - Gardiner
-Full day in north Yellowstone, ending in Lake Lodges inside Yellowstone. I believe this will minimize backtracking.
-I know we want to hit Canyon, what else can we squeeze in?
Night 2 - lake lodges in Yellowstone
-We’ll have a full day starting in the Central Park. No idea what we should do, looking for recommendations!
-We will end up near Grand Teton.
Night 3/4 - Signal Mountain campground near Teton
-Day 4 is a full day in Teton. What do you recommend?
-Day 5 is a half day in Teton. We are debating spending the morning in Jackson Hole, depending on how pooped we are. Also open to must see places!
What am I missing? Does it make sense where I'm staying?
