You can fly to salt lake city. It just take 6 hours including the connecting time between flight from Montreal. And you can rent a car from salt lake city to yellow stone park. I went there two weeks end of Auguest last year. There wasn't that many people. July and August are high seasons. But the last two weeks of Auguest is the best time. Since kids are going back to school and old people want to wait till the weather colder to go there. The people in the park told us that(last two weeks of Auguest and first two weeks of Sept). We were kind of lucky to choose that time.
Yellow stone and Grand teton are awesome. We went both siteseeing and hiking. Siteseeing allowed us see all the amazing geysers, basins, lakes, landscape and wild animals. Hiking allowed us far away from crowd and more close nature and animals. Grand teton is beatiful too. Especially you like mountain hiking, wild flowers, birds.
It was a very nice trip for me. But if you have kids and parents with you. Siteseeing is good too. It really depands on what you like. But it's defintly a very nice place for vacations. |
