The Grand Teton mountain range has to be one of the most recognisable in the world and we were super excited to explore the area. Before entering the national park we stopped at Jackson Hole. Everyone we’ve met has said we have to go to Jackson, the name has echoed around us since arriving in…

Grizzly bears and scary rock slides
It was our final full day in Denali National Park so we decided to make the most of the buses and try and go up and down the park road twice in a day, about 10 hours travel time to maximise our chances of wildlife viewings. We waited for the bus but the first two…
