DESCRIPTION:
The best guide for the Teton Yellowstone area! J. S Thomas I purchased this book and several others for my trip to the Tetons and Yellowstone. This book was very informative on lodging, trails, sightseeing and travel. This guide was a time saver as well giving me ideas of the trails and difficulty and estimated time. Many things to do and lots of recommendations for children but its so much more. Definately a keeper and will use next time im planning a vacation to the area. Oh by the way, i do recommend a trip to the Tetons and Yellowstone. The tetons were breathtaking and definately do the trip accross Jenny Lake. Yellowstone, WOW the gysers, wildlife, fishing it w. Wonderful Guide - Made Our Trip Fantastic! A Customer This was the best book out of three that we purchased. This book is equally good for singles, couples, or families - so don't let the title mislead you. In addition to the great hikes, it also describes several other types of trips - like row boating on Colter Bay in the Tetons. It's well organized and includes good maps and descriptions. I highly recommend this book for anyone planning a trip to Yellowstone and Grand Tetons.. A Customer said Fantastic Resource.
