Wyoming Trips for Women

Yellowstone sits directly on top of an active supervolcano, a fact the National Park Service mentions on approximately every third sign and then expects you to keep hiking normally. You will. The ground occasionally steams underfoot regardless of ambient temperature, which stops being alarming faster than expected.

Bison have the right of way here, legally and otherwise, and will stand in the middle of a road for as long as they feel like it, causing a traffic jam better than any excuse you’ve used for being late. Keep the recommended distance; the news stories about people who didn’t are not urban legend.

Grand Teton sits an hour south and looks like it was drawn by someone with a stronger opinion about mountains than whoever designed Yellowstone’s rolling, geyser-pocked terrain. Jagged instead of steaming. A different kind of impressive.

Four days gets you Yellowstone’s greatest hits and a soak in a hot spring that isn’t actively trying to kill you. Seven days adds the Tetons, plus the cycling that comes with them.

The Yellowstone Women’s Hiking and Hot Springs Weekend covers the shorter version. The Yellowstone Hiking and Wildlife with Grand Teton trip adds the extra days and the second mountain range.
