Description
Our Yellowstone Spring/Fall Trekking Adventure is the earliest and latest backpacking trip we have in Yellowstone because of high mountain snow melt and chilly fall temperatures. What this means for you is that the tourist season isn’t active and the wildlife will be far more active and visible than in the middle of summer. Starting our point to point all women’s hike at the junction of Helloroaring Creek and the Yellowstone River, you’ll traverse the Black Canyon, which runs along the drier and warmer northern boundary of the park. Cascading waterfalls, world-class trout waters, majestic hiking and camping, and abundant wildlife are just some of the hallmarks of this tour!
Every camp has a view of the Yellowstone River’s impressive waters, and in many cases we’re camped right along its banks. If you’re interested in an early season Yellowstone hike and a great adventure, this tour is for you. Don’t miss the unique opportunity to hike Yellowstone before the crowds!
Please Note: The Jackson Hole Airport will be closed from April 11 – June 28, 2022. Alternative gateway cities to Jackson Hole include Idaho Falls, ID and Salt Lake City, UT (Salt Lake Express offers a daily shuttle from Idaho Falls to Jackson Hole). Your guide can pick you up in Driggs or Victor, ID in addition to Jackson, WY.
Need to Know: March 1st Permits
Due to Yellowstone’s permit system, which issues backcountry hiking and camping permits on March 1st each year, it’s beneficial to register before February 28th of the year you’d like to hike with us. Give us a call at 1-800-715-HIKE (4453) to learn more!
