Witness the Tetons in their best fall dress where rampaging large ungulates (elk, bison, moose, etc.), release their fall passion with grunts, bugles, and a nasty disposition. Fall migrating birds along with winter residents will add to the fun. Several hikes combined with auto tours will be included, and a visit to the Teton Science School Murie Museum. RSVP by contacting Jack Greene: 435-764-4815 or jackisblue4960@yahoo.com

Signed waivers required for all participants. Complete form, print results and bring printed waiver to meeting point.

We will be camping at Gros Ventre campground, so bring your own food & gear, or partner with someone who has gear to share. Donate whatever is fair to the driver (unless you’re driving!).
