Enjoy The Sunrise
Grand Teton National Park, WY
This is most likely one of the most picture-worthy mountain ranges in the country. The Grand Tetons climb above the Wyoming prairie and are spectacular to see anytime, but they radiate with beauty on dawn’s clear or partly cloudy morning.
Waking up to see the first light of morning touch the peak of Grand Teton will fill you with wonder. If there are scattered clouds, it’s even more beautiful to see the entire sky in pink, purple, and peach hues.
But even if the sky is perfectly clear, seeing that first light on the magnificent Tetons is an experience that feels new each time you visit.
And even though there’s no shortage of campgrounds to accommodate this view, there may be a shortage of sites for much of the summer. So we recommend visiting in late spring or early fall.
Have been through most of the western US Parks, and loved them all. The trip to some of the parks can be depressing given living conditions of natives. Haven’t been to the parks in Maine, still on my list, but have been through most of the western parks in winter and summer. Can’t be beaten. Plan to go again.
