The grandeur of Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks in late Summer.
We had a chance to spend a week in the Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks in Wyoming this summer. That was a week of spectacular sights - landscapes, geysers, wildlife, and night lights. We spent our basecamp in the Jackson Lake area for a part of the week and in West Yellowstone for the rest of the week. From there, most parts of the parks were a modest drive away.
