  • 👍Stan and Rhonda from Over The Hill Adventures give their viewers a special look at one of their best travel days ever! In this episode from their best season yet, Into The Wild, Stan and Rhonda leave Theodore Roosevelt National Park and travel to Cody, Wyoming for one night before heading off to Grand Teton National Park. Their drive from Cody to the Tetons was absolutely amazing! They were in awe as they entered through the East Gate of Yellowstone National Park. The views of the snow covered mountains were spectacular as they climbed to the highest point of Yellowstone. They traveled along the ridge of a frozen Yellowstone Lake. They came across wildlife right next to the road and then headed out the South Gate of Yellowstone. They arrive at the Grand Tetons and are overwhelmed by it's beauty. This will be their last stop for this amazing season. Come with Stan and Rhonda as they set up camp at Gros Ventre Campground in Grand Teton National Park. The campground was not cheap, but worth it.🏕️

    Enjoyed riding along with y'all on this segment of your trip. My first (and only) introduction to the Gros Ventre CG was in 1968 on a three week car camping trip from the southeast with my folks. For a 15 year old flatlander, the site of the Tetons was overwhelming. Did revisit Jackson Hole in 2015 when my wife and I enjoyed a western White Christmas that year. Thanks for the memorable scenery and sharing your excitement about being there.

      Hello John, thank you for joining us and sharing that beautiful memory. I don’t think we have ever seen anything more majestic. The only thing that comes close is when we woke up in Yosemite National Park. It was very cloudy when we arrived. The following morning we woke up beneath El Capitan poking through the clouds and the sun shining on its summit. So many beautiful places in our great country. God has certainly blessed us with His mighty paint brush. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️

    Another great video and full of ideas for future travels for us. We just left Gros Ventre a week ago, stayed in a pull through site in F Loop, barely fit our 40 ft Fifth wheel. Had great sunny weather in the 70's. We spent one of our days riding our Harley in the park, it is an amazing place, will be back for more explorations there someday. Safe travels.

We seen seasons change in a day. We been trying to stay in Gros Ventre but can't seem to get in even a year out. We stayed at Signal mtn cg which I wouldn't recommended its small.
