As winter releases its grip and the first signs of spring begin to emerge, the Grand Tetons come alive in a way that’s nothing short of magical. The snow-capped peaks start to reveal patches of rugged terrain, and the valleys below begin to burst with life. This is the season of renewal, where every corner of the Tetons offers a fresh perspective, perfect for capturing through the lens.

Spring in the Grand Tetons is a time of contrasts. The towering mountains still wear their winter coats, while the lower elevations are carpeted in vibrant greens and dotted with wildflowers. Rivers and streams, swollen with snowmelt, cascade through the landscape, adding dynamic movement to the serene beauty of the region.

For photographers, this is a golden opportunity. The interplay of light and shadow as the sun rises and sets creates dramatic scenes, with the Tetons’ jagged peaks casting long, breathtaking silhouettes. Wildlife, too, begins to re-emerge, with elk, bison, and even the elusive grizzly bear making their presence known, providing endless possibilities for wildlife photography.

Whether you’re capturing the delicate blossoms of spring flowers, the grandeur of the mountains, or the first signs of new life among the wildlife, the Grand Tetons in spring offer a canvas of inspiration. Together, we’ll explore the best vantage points, discover hidden gems, and make the most of every photographic opportunity this season has to offer.

Day 1 Travel Day (Dinner will be provided)

We’ll get started early on our first morning, setting off pre-dawn to set up for an iconic sunrise location. We will then start looking for wildlife. In the Spring we’ll be at the Park during calving season, so wildlife like elk, bison, and pronghorn, among others, should be quite active. If you join us in the fall the wildlife will be beginning their winter preparations, and while we cannot guarantee sightings, we’ll nearly, almost guarantee wildlife sightings on this tour.
