“I would recommend this safari to anyone. Go early in your trip to get acquainted with the park, and you’ll be very glad you did!” – Mary Ohio

If you want to experience the best of Jackson Hole in the winter then this is the wildlife photo safari tour for you! Your day will begin with a pastry and coffee from Atelier Ortega before heading off into the National Elk Refuge and Grand Teton National Park in search of the area’s abundant wintering wildlife. Thousands of mule deer, elk, moose, big horn sheep and bison migrate into the valley in search of food each year along with coyotes, wolves, fox, bald and golden eagles, swans, and even the occasional mountain lion. This gathering of wintering wildlife makes winter one of the best times to view wildlife in Jackson Hole!

After a full morning with the animals we  will head to the National Museum of Wildlife Art where we can gain inspiration from one of the best collections of wildlife art in the world and enjoy lunch at the rising sage cafe. After lunch and a walk through the museum we will take a horse drawn sleigh through the National Elk Refuge into the middle of one of the largest elk herds in North America.
