Wyoming Travel Tips

Yellowstone National Park: It's the crown jewel of American parks, and it remains the prime attraction in the Rocky Mountains. This unique park offers visitors an extraordinary combination of wilderness, wildlife, and geothermal wonders.
Grand Teton National Park: The Grand Tetons are an excellent short course in Rocky Mountain parks for travelers with less time: magnificent peaks rising from the Snake River plain, alpine lakes, wildflowers, and wildlife, all in a relatively small park that can be seen in a few days or combined with Jackson for a longer vacation.

Wyoming Travel Guide

A mix of the rugged Wild West, the even more rugged Rocky Mountains, and a few almost-modern cities—or what we might call overgrown cow towns—make the states of Montana and Wyoming a delightful vacation spot. This is especially true for people who savor outdoor adventures, but it's also the case for those looking to discover a part of the United States that many of us have seen only in the movies and on television (and that's a rather distorted view). Here you'll find some of the most breathtaking scenery in America; a vast array of wildlife that not only thinks it owns the place, but actually does; and even some first-class Western-style lodges, restaurants, and museums.

What is there to do in Wyoming in late October? Are the roads still open in Yellowstone, are there any fall festivals, etc...? I am looking at potentially visiting with my wife for our anniversary the weekend of 10/24-10/25. We have been to all 4 corners in the past during work trips, but haven't really had a chance to be tourists. Thank you!
