Yellowstone & Tetons Snow Adventure Tour

On this trip we stay at Old Faithful Snow Lodge. While this accommodation reflects the natural surroundings of the national parks and provides unparalleled access to the best activities in the area, it is simpler than is typical of Backroads lodging. The lodge has basic guest rooms that are not equipped with televisions. Please note that internet and cell phone service are extremely limited throughout the parks.

The National Park Service limits the size of all groups in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. Accordingly, you’ll hike and snowshoe in small groups with Backroads leaders and local guides. We appreciate your cooperation with park regulations.

Winter weather in Yellowstone and Tetons can be among the coldest in the United States, but you can comfortably enjoy the outdoors if you’re properly dressed. In order to snowshoe or hike in the snow, you must wear waterproof snow or hiking boots and waterproof, breathable pants, jacket and gloves. Your clothing should be warm enough to allow you to comfortably remain outside in below-freezing conditions for two to four hours at a time. Layers are encouraged for when we snowshoe.

You can’t have a winter wonderland without some winter weather. During December, January and February—when our trips run—snow and below-freezing temperatures are likely, and even rain is possible. Please know that if, during the trip, we encounter severe weather that affects our planned activities, your Trip Leaders will find alternative activities that you’re sure to enjoy.
