For unparalleled beauty and wilderness, Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks shine in scenic splendor. As two of the country’s best-known parklands, these glorious examples of Wyoming’s varied and rugged wilderness never fail to inspire even the most well traveled. With its steaming fumaroles, thundering geysers and bubbling pools, Yellowstone is a geological treasure. And rising in great jagged waves, the Tetons offer nothing less than staggering grandeur with their alpine lakes, soaring peaks and valleys teeming with wildlife. Come along with Backroads to an extraordinary setting that invites exploration by bike, foot and kayak.

Once again, we must rave about the folks at Backroads. From start to finish, you guys are insanely good. I couldn't believe what amazing food our leaders were able to prepare using just a grill and a Dutch oven! The meatless lasagna was the best I have ever had! The steaks, the cakes . . . heaven. And they work sooo hard. How can they manage to still be so perky, to carry our kids on shoulders, then sleep for only three or four hours on the ground? They are a special breed. I keep telling my 12-year-old daughter that she must seek this kind of work someday. What a celebration of life!- Coral Gables, FL
