Yellowstone Discovery (Classic)

Highlights

• Yellowstone National Park: The world’s first National Park, Yellowstone spans 2,219,789 acres and even has its own Grand Canyon. The park is home to half of the world’s hydrothermal features, more than 10,000, of which over 300 are geysers. Yellowstone is also a wildlife paradise. Some 1,700 species of plants and 400 species of birds, fish and mammals live in the park, including bison, wolves, bears, elk and moose.
• Yellowstone National Park: One of the major geyser basins in Yellowstone, the Mammoth Hot Springs Area is visually unique from the other thermal features in the park. Here, hot water rises through the limestone, dissolving large quantities of rock and leaving a chalky mineral deposit in the surface. Find yourself by the bubbling waters, whose constant movement means the springs are changing all the time.
• Yellowstone National Park: Two gentle hikes offer the chance to admire the views and meander past many of the park's beautiful and historic hot spring terraces. An abundance of wildlife inhabits the area including bears, elk, mule deer, moose, beavers and a large variety of water birds.
• Yellowstone National Park: The many sights of this magnificent National Park include its spectacular geysers and bubbling hot springs. A heady mix of open meadows and hills, deep canyons and cascading falls awaits you along with stunning viewpoints from which to admire the park and its surrounding areas.
• Yellowstone National Park: The Park’s Upper Geyser Basin and Midway Geyser Basin are home to some of the world's most spectacular hydrothermal features: Old Faithful Geyser, Opal Pool, Turquoise Pool, Excelsior Geyser Crater and Grand Prismatic Spring.
• Grand Teton National Park: Travel through a mountainous landscape like no other. Witness the striking Grand Tetons thrust skyward 6,562 feet (2,000 meters) from the valley floor and keenly watch for exciting wildlife that call these mountains home. Including the grizzly bear, bald eagles, moose, bison, and elk.
• Jackson: Enjoy access to the Members-Only Lounge.
• Yellowstone National Park: Discover Yellowstone National Park with local artist John Potter who’ll bring to life the complex relationships that exist in nature. Growing up in northern Wisconsin, Potter developed a love for the Natural World early on and learned many of the traditions of his Anishinaabe (Ojibwe/Chippewa) ancestors. After he was drawn to the arts in childhood, Potter spent 20 years as an award-winning illustrator for a large Montana newspaper before painting landscapes and wildlife full time in 2002. Potter has since made his home in the Greater Yellowstone region and has developed a special relationship with the land and all its inhabitants.
