If you have never been to Yellowstone, America's Oldest National Park, then planning a visit can seem overwhelming when you start to research. First, accept that Yellowstone National Park cannot be accomplished in just one trip. On top of the fact that there is so much to do and see, each area is so different from the next, from year to year, and season to season!
Thanks to climate conditions, water and snow levels, wildlife movements, varying flower bloom times and other factors, it's in your best interest to consider having a guide for your first go at backcountry exploration. Your trip choice is a function of timing and what season you are most interested in experiencing. At Big Wild Adventures, we schedule Yellowstone adventure travel based on optimal time slots for each activity and each area of the park. Nobody wants to go into the Heart Lake area in early summer only to be get stuck in mud, waving off mosquitoes. For example, if you wait until August, there are fewer pests and better conditions for trekking. If you want to walk among the wildflowers, we have just the trip for you in June. Our Wildflower Extravaganza covers the Black Canyon area of the Yellowstone River, Coyote Creek, and Hellroaring Creeks. These places are a vision of blooms for a short window of time before the long, hot days of high summer. Timing your trip in order to spot wildlife also helps with some local expertise.
