📍Cascade Canyon Trail, Grand Teton NP 🫎
🗺️ LOCATION
Teton Park Road in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming - a 35 minute drive from the town of Jackson
🥾 OPTIONS FOR HIKING
1️⃣ Catch the Jenny Lake Ferry* both directions and hike Cascade Canyon to Lake Solitude & back (14.7 miles, 2400 feet elevation gain)
2️⃣ Skip the ferry & hike Cascade Canyon to Lake Solitude and back, starting at Jenny Lake (18 miles + 2750 feet elevation gain). Note that we hiked 19 miles total because we walked to the backside of Lake Solitude.
3️⃣ Start & end at String Lake, hike up Paintbrush Canyon and down Cascade Canyon (19 miles + 4200 feet elevation gain)
*Look up opening times for the Jenny Lake Ferry before going because it changes seasonally
🌲 EASIER ALTERNATIVE
Catch the Jenny Lake Ferry and hike to Hidden Falls + Inspiration Point (1.8 miles + 400 feet of elevation gain)
🗓️ BEST TIME OF YEAR
I have hiked this trail in both summer (July) and fall (September) and recommend both times of year. Anytime that the trail is snow free is perfect. You can check trail reports & conditions on apps like AllTrails, and don’t be shy to speak to a ranger at the park visitor center
🎟️ ENTRANCE FEE
You need a permit to enter Grand Teton National Park and this can be purchased at park entrance stations. It costs $35 per vehicle for a 7 day pass or you can purchase an America the Beautiful Pass that is $80 for a year of unlimited entry to any US national park
🎒 WHAT TO PACK
▫️ Ample food & snacks
▫️ Water & a purifier / filter to fill up along the way
▫️ Sun hat, sunscreen, sunglasses
▫️ Layers, including a rain jacket & insulation layer (it can be very cold up at the pass)
▫️ Small first aid kit with bandaids
▫️ Highly recommend having an emergency beacon / satellite phone
▫️ Downloaded offline trail maps and/or a physical trail map

Save these 5 must-see stops across Yellowstone and Grand Teton for your summer trip ⬇️
If you’ve never been to either park before, these places are good starting points for your trip, and super photogenic.
1. Morning Glory Pool (Yellowstone)
One of Yellowstone’s most famous hot springs located along the Upper Geyser Basin boardwalk near Old Faithful. The short walk is mostly flat and easy. Colors change depending on microbial activity and water temperature, so expect vivid blues, yellows, and greens on clear days.
2. Artist Point (Yellowstone)
The classic overlook of Lower Yellowstone Falls and the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Easily accessible from the parking lot with a short paved walk. Best light is late afternoon to sunset when the canyon walls glow.
3. Mormon Row (Grand Teton)
Historic barns set against the jagged Teton Range, making this one of the most photographed spots in the U.S. Sunrise is ideal when alpenglow hits the peaks and the valley is calm. Located on Antelope Flats Road with easy access and flat terrain.
4. Jenny Lake Scenic Drive (Grand Teton)
A short loop road that provides views of the Tetons, forested shorelines, and access to trailheads and boat docks. Parking fills quickly in summer. Early morning is best for light and fewer crowds. Great base area if you plan to hike to Hidden Falls or Inspiration Point.
5. Schwabacher Landing (Grand Teton)
A calm river access point famous for mirror-like reflections of Mount Moran and the central Tetons. Short, flat walk from the parking area. Sunrise offers the smoothest water and best reflections.
If you have more time, Yellowstone and Grand Teton offer a lot more than these highlights—geyser basins, alpine hikes, wildlife corridors, mountain lakes, and scenic backroads. These stops are just a good base for building an awesome national parks road trip.

Don’t piss one of these bad boys off🫎
Was pretty incredible seeing this moose named “Hoback” interact and fight with other bulls this year. One of which busted his ear up pretty good.

Sun setting over the Grand Teton mountain range.
August 5, 2022
No filter.
Jackson Hole, WY
Was driving home tonight, and as the sun set over the mountains the clouds turned the most beautiful colors. I pulled over and took this video, no filters. The video doesn’t do it justice. Still in awe.
I have just seen #yellowstonenationalpark and the #grandtetons and I shall never be the same.

‘Some old-fashioned things like fresh air and sunshine are hard to beat.’ - Laura Ingalls Wilder
The simple beauty of warmer days in cowboy country, where wildlife roams in emerald forests and silent mountains are reflected in perfect symmetry on the surface of mirrored lakes. This is summer at @Amangani. Nature in all its mystery and magic.
