ℹ️ About the Episode: Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow this year! Normally, we would know whether to predict an early spring based on the groundhog seeing his shadow. We have a much more reliable method... your emails! As a result of so many emails from people planning their spring and summer trips, we looked up what happened on February 2nd (Groundhog Day) and even Phil agrees... spring is coming early! If you happen to be planning a National Park trip through the Tetons, Yellowstone, or Glacier-or all three-this 10-Day Travel Itinerary should help. In this episode, we cover the three most popular National Parks in the Mountain Region of the States, where to stay, and what to do. We also share some tips to make your trip even better. We don't normally ask for "likes,” but we really wanted to know if content like this is helpful to the community. If we get over 10,000 likes, we'll start working on the next one! We're not planning on going overboard, but maybe every six weeks or so, we can use our travel experience to share some insights on unforgettable 10-day trips.

This is exactly the sort of content that made KYD great in our eyes. Traveling, going places, exploring areas new and old, giving travel information with lessons learned, makes for interesting viewing. We believe this is where KYD's roots are. Please do more. John & Patti.

[@TP-es1pf]

Yes, we stopped watching cuz it was all rigs and such. Subbed originally because they travelled and hiked.

[@pjreads5014]

0:21 Dogs are not allowed on the trails in the National Parks and it is irresponsible of you to show hiking with your dog in the park. IF it was filmed outside the park, you should have said so and made it clear what the rules are.

[@MuahMan]

@@pjreads5014 OK Karen!

[@dlee9079]

Yeah but another lame narrative instead of the actual trip. 😂

[@shawnbebout]

@@dlee9079 I think you mean a compilation of reruns instead of an actual trip....

[@50buttfish]

Did a 30 day trip, started with a hike down into the Grand Canyon; short layover in St George, to visit family; northward to Yellowstone for a week; across ID to Craters of the Moon; to Lake Tahoe for a few days; then to Yosemite back country for another week; a visit to Ft Ord to see my brother finish basic, and see more family. Cost was $35 each for 3 of us, in 1971, gas money.

[@zedhead2864]

Our Itinerary last year was: Enter Yellowstone from Cody, Wy. 1 Day in the park, Then to Jackson Hole. Three days in the Tetons. Then hit the west side of the Teton Range. Up the Salmon River Gorge to Missoula. Then 2 Days in Glacier. Was an AMAZING trip!

[@DuffyGabi]

Yes, the early days of KYD were magical. Of course now it is expensive to get a permit to record in each national park. That’s why this was all old footage.

[@prepper1013]

We moved from CA, to Wyoming, 2 years ago and don't regret it for a second. We now have 2 cows. Who would've thunk I'd ever have cows? One day our paths will cross and I'll give you guys my autograph.

[@debbiec6998]

Keep doing these videos even if you do not get 10K likes! The biggest problem I have on planning a trip is how long to spend in each. This video is a good introduction into those parks, then can be adapted for longer stays.

[@mickster1780]

yes that's tricky. i would say spend as much time in Yellowstone as possible. you won't regret it

[@jeffreydavis4029]

I thought it was your best series ever when you did this in season 9. This is going to be an awesome year!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

I thought so too as we were going through the footage. We need to go back!

[@billbeverly2864]

Now that I am retired I have been spending the past few summers working in Yellowstone National Park. This summer I will be working at Lake Lodge front desk.

[@eggohead4249]

The little area with the cattle/ and the store is Daniel, out of Pindale heading towards Jackson.. grew up spending summers working over there.. love the area. Took Yellowstone/ Jackson, and the Tetons for granted. I miss not seeing it early in the year (May) late in the summer.. but you guys need to go in during the winter. Totally different.. I also miss seeing real snow..

[@rnupnorthbrrrsm6123]

Oh the memories ❤ I’ve been out there several times on the back of a Harley Davidson and boy oh boy, the views were amazing with no obstruction !!! We didn’t camp or cook out, did hotels/cabins and restaurants but on a motorcycle you can cover a lot of ground…..it was absolutely amazing ! You can’t take your RV but take a drive and do Bear tooth Pass, you’ll see cook and Red Lodge too, historic towns and pass that makes you wonder how people survived back then and built what they did, it’s amazing! I’m so excited for the season to begin…..after you get Tori married ❤ Blessings

[@cajunsacrossamerica7140]

I'll be workamping this summer at the Cody KOA Holiday, so we'll be playing in Yellowstone all summer. We leave in 6 weeks and can't wait! Yellowstone has been a bucket list place for us! We plan on going to the Tetons, and with me having a veterans lifetime pass makes it awesome

[@brucerichardson1498]

The big 3… is absolutely amazing, but we have never found 5 days enough time to really enjoy Glacier. I would recommend anyone who is traveling a long distance, to try and schedule at least 2 weeks or more to really get to know the parks.

[@melissaweyrick5311]

I love Sundays, cook a good meal and watch KYD

[@karlgrundemann7417]

Thank you! I'm camping in the Tetons and Yellowstone this September (3 and 4 full days, respectively). Loved the ideas and teaser video!!

[@sallyjaynes2433]

Spectacular "narration Trish" on the ''retroactive" of family Western style thru & thru the mountainous roundabouts💯. Utterly captured captivating ..... continued history in the making 🏞️🏔️🛣️. 🎞️📽️🎬

[@Craig32]

Banff/Jasper is one the most beautiful parks in North America. Easy drive from Glacier.

[@philipgerry5228]

We live in Illinois and are drawn back to Yellowstone and The Tetons every 5 years (or less). Camping is the way to go there.

[@janicevoss864]

Loved this video. It’s been awhile since you have shown the kids when you first started RVing and it’s really fun to see!! Happy wedding to Victoria!! Wishing her and her new soon to be husband all the best!! 👏👏❤️👏👏

[@rebeccaewing473]

I would love to see your content of Columbia River gorge, Mount Saint Helens, Mount Rainier and N. Cascades Highway

[@jimsherry7050]

Just got back from Yellowstone. Yup, in February. Seeing the park in winter on a snowmobile is simply amazing.

[@2skyp]

Acadia National Park is on the top of my bucket list. I'm a New England guy. You always say, start with your backyard.

[@DragonWarriorMama]

All of these is on my bucket list how completely beautiful

[@sueadams9825]

Love it! I’ve been to all three of these parks, but I always see something I missed in your videos. Plus it brings back wonderful memories of my time there.

[@genericwatcher2439]

Yellowstone is the most amazing place I have every been in my life, spent just over a week hiking, biking and enjoying it. I was there when covid just started and the park was EMPTY, saw every animal imaginable and just can't imagine it would be as amazing a 2nd time around... My son and I even got to see 4 separate geyser eruptions in less than 10 minutes as we ran a trail near old faithful and the eruptions just "lined up", it was surreal.

[@tngamble01]

Great video and content. We tried the Yellowstone, Teton, and Glacier itinerary in 2020 and had it planned out. However, Glacier was closed down that year. So, we pivoted to Idaho's City of Rocks instead (highly recommend). We were able to fit Glacier in our 2021 travels (amazing). For a future video, maybe you could have a West Coast itinerary? In 2021, we spent about 3 weeks in the west coast states. We feel like we experienced a lot but only touched the surface of all there was see and do. We just spent a few days each in the big parks (Rainier, Olympic, Redwoods, Crater, and Yosemite). We definitely would like to go back to the west coast.

[@11MonsieurHobbes]

Thanks for the inspiration - My vote is for the Olympic, Mt Rainier, Crater Lake, North Cascades or the Utah NPs

[@littlehouseadventures3426]

Nice throwbacks with the young ins. Makes me realize how long I've been following you. ... Loved this video. This is just the trip I'm dreaming of doing next year. I'll be turning 50 in Feb of 25, and this is a big bucket list trip we want to spend 2 weeks on. This year, I'm focusing on fitness to get my body in shape for the hiking. The goal is to loose "50 by 50", so 50 lbs before I turn 50. Easy enough. Keep it simple, not going crazy so it's easy to maintain. Already 10lbs lighter then I was on Jan 1st just with diet changes (no sugar and soda) and portion control (not feeling like I have to eat it all to not be rude, impolite, or wasteful). ... Thanks for the inspiration and tips!

[@GoBearrister]

Last summer your previous Glacier NP videos convinced me to take the family on an RV trek from SoCal to Glacier and Yellowstone. We spent 2 weeks doing the entire trip. I never got around to leaving a comment on your other videos to say “thank you” for your content. It really inspired us to dream big and make the epic RV drive with our travel trailer to Glacier. It was an amazing trip and we can’t wait to go back. We wouldn’t have done it if not for your content. We even stayed at West Glacier RV park since we saw how amazing it looked on your videos. We even wore our 2023 KYD “Summer to Remember” shirts at various points during the trip.

[@ShawnPatterson402]

yup.....that is about as good as it gets for sure. That would make an excellent 10 days without a doubt, although there is enough to do that you could reverse course and do another 10 days there, and then do it all again :) We are heading out on April 15 with no firm plans. Just going to go and find stuff. Can hardly wait. As always, safe travels, and hopefully the prep of your new rig is coming along well.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

So true! Thanks.

[@ChrisD-kl3ty]

Appreciate the recap. Nice easy vid to start a plan. And fyi i enjoy all your vids from rigs to gadgets (man stuff) to the organization command hooks (woman stuff). Vids like this and detailed ones about a specific place. I enjoyed them all!

[@tracym2164]

I was fortunate to travel through these three National Parks as I travelled from Canada to Yellowstone , south through the Tetons and then looped around to return through Glacier and Yoho back to Canada. A magical journey that I would like to travel again as there are always more places to explore and never enough time! Your assessments are always bang on and I appreciate all of your recommendations for things to see, places to visit and activities to partake in along the way. Thank you for sharing your extensive knowledge.

[@jeffsteele1295]

I always love your videos. You two do it right and I'm always amazed watching . Thanks for the many years of time that I know you two have put into every video. I love them all God Bless your family .

[@douglaslee7776]

Yes, more please. Wife isn’t wild about southwest travel so I love sharing your travels. Additionally, the wedding is a hard call. As a pastor I only allow a video of the vows to be made from an unmanned tripod. It’s still a sacred event between God, the bride and the groom. We have enjoyed watching your family grow and major milestones invite us to share your joy, and know how to pray for you all.

[@mygypsyadventure3610]

I have been watching your channel since the beginning and I am enjoying the snippets with your kids as young whipper snappers😁. I am hoping to get to Glacier this year so your video was perfect timing!

[@rvcruising]

So beautiful. Makes me want to go back!!!

[@ejs6010]

Great travel plans and Trish's narration is so informative and inviting. Thank you.

[@davidoverholt251]

Watching your family all these years on your travels, I am so getting older as all your children are adults now! Time fly's you two! Enjoy each day!

[@rovingrosses3288]

What a great itinerary. Thanks so much. Have to do the Mighty 5 next

[@victoriamoberg1220]

Florida :) we are here and with so much to see we don’t know the best routine. We’ve passed St. Augustine and actually passed thru there for a night but still hasn’t been a tourist there lol

[@tenajones2841]

love this! We need so much planning help. I get so overwhelmed trying to make plans for road trips. Thanks for your content and work for us! Sooo appreciated ❤

[@tjwrangler011]

Thank you so much! I'm taking the month of July off to take my family to these national parks. So excited!

[@skipcollins4774]

Planning Grand Tetons and Yellowstone this summer so this was really helpful. Thanks.

[@Adam_Gray]

I'm somewhere between the 5.1K and 5.2K in hitting the like 👍🏼 button! From Jackson Hole, West Yellowstone and Whitefish 🏔💚

[@DebbieSmith-lt5yv]

Heading to Alaska this summer. Would love to see more videos on Alaska, Banff, and Jasper as well! Best camping and excursions in Alaska! Especially Seward area!

[@tywebb9879]

Great job team. I could spend weeks in those parks hitting the trails, lakes and sites. A photo paradise.

[@2skyp]

If I ever get to any of these places, I won't want to leave. Ever.

[@curtschumann4400]

Loved this episode. Went to the Tetons and Yellowstone with parents when I was 11. Haven’t been back yet, as I live in CA, but my wife said she’s down, and we should plan for it in the next couple of years. I would love to see Glacier as well. Looks like a great itinerary. Thanks guys and be safe.

[@scottfarrell1]

I’d love to have your itinerary for a trip around the Great Lakes.

[@libbybaxley6134]

Would love to see a similar episode on Utah’s Mighty 5 National Parks.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Ah, yes. That would be a good series. Certainly not possible in 10 days as Capital Reef is a bit out of the way.

[@mollyjohnson5426]

Capitol reef and more are able to be done if you start at arches, horseshoe bend, canyonlands, then take I 70 over San Rafael Swell east and westbound then drop into goblin valley on the 24, Explore hanksville, Torrey on the 12. Escalante, then Bryce, and Zion. I would purchase Utah state park pass to make the non national park visits cheaper. I prefer exploring over roads versus going hiking & crowds so I spend less time at beautiful but very busy Zion and more on the roads between Bryce and arches. Emphasizing Escalante and San Rafael Swell. Amazing geology and different mountain colors.

[@brettelizabethspore]

Great timing! We are planning our Yellowstone trip with my parents right now. No RV but 5 crazy people in a van!

[@toddramsay977]

Like to eventually see NH, VT, the Berkshires in western MA and the finger lakes of NY and Singer Is. in the St. Lawrence River.

[@brucegruenbaum]

This is why KYD is a really good channel to follow. Next up you should do the Utah 5.

[@lwhite530]

Hello my favorite YTers of all time. The KYD FAMILY!!! Happy funday Sunday!!

[@TrailerTravelin]

Great itinerary! How about a 5 or 6 day itinerary from Los Angeles to the Redwoods National Forest along the PCH?

[@mikenowak2360]

Come on to Michigan. We love it when your in our home state.

[@LisaSmith-sc5zs]

LOVED YELLOWSTONE...We went in 2020..Just went over the Tetons,....but WOW...Trip of a lifetime for us...and hope that we can go back one day and head onto Glacier..

[@greggouellette4310]

Now we’re rollin…! You guys rock!

[@ladikmk]

This is a wonderful video with so many great recommendations of how to divide up these three huge National Parks. It was fun to see the kids in their "younger" days enjoying your trips. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us this KYD season. Hope you're all well & thanks for sharing.

[@UncleBildo]

Olympics and North Cascades loop are gorgeous, but most people miss the other side of the state. Some hidden gems. There's more to Washington than the post cards! Tetons and Yellowstone is a jaw dropper. The Absaroka mountains were maybe my favorite there, used to be my brother's view out his front window. Keep up the good work. Maybe some day bump into you all "out there".

[@PSC9634]

We loved staying in Gardiner near the Roosevelt entrance at the RV Park on the hill. We had a permanent elk in the RV park.The elk and calves gather at the elementary school field! Great viewing. Congrats to Victoria. We'd like an episode where the trio of your kids speak to how they feel off the road, what they miss, don't miss, will they travel with their fam. Happy trails!

[@paulab984]

That would be a lot of fun!

[@dennislautner8709]

Love watching your beautiful family maturing. The best on You Tube!

[@LynDean61]

Loved this content type. Also add for more in-depth info and behind scenes hikes, ck out Yellowstone Association or specific Park Friends Organizations.

[@effortlesschoice]

I was just watching a video detailing how editing to grab attention is beginning to annoy viewers, and channel metrics are reflecting it. What (does) work for a channel…editing that enhances the story and doesn’t get in the way of the people telling that story. KYD is emblematic of the latter; great story, wonderful people, brilliantly edited. Ps Mark, whatever happened to your course that taught how to start & edit a KZbin channel? Please, produce a short report that focuses on your editing style, I’d buy that in a heartbeat. I would like to learn one style of editing…yours. 👍😎

[@eduardoramos4998]

Great video! My wife and I would love to do a trip like that. To stay a bit closer to home first though. Wonder is there a video you guys could do of maybe your favorites going through California? Your must see places in your ideal loop through California? Thanks for the great content. Love watching all the videos you put out for us!!!

[@theathjr]

Every single KYD video puts a smile on my face . This was epic. Thank you Marc Trish Caleb Charlie and the other two who’s names escape me. Well done

[@theathjr]

Carson ! I remembered.

[@ceciliasantean8284]

Victoria

[@creationsfromlace6894]

I have to confess I haven’t watched for awhile because it didn’t seem like you were doing much camping. This is exactly why we started watching and LOVE it!! Need tips from the pros, might also include any fees or permits needed to get into the parks. Thank you

[@sounddesignmix3002]

One of your best episodes! I love this format, it's very inviting and approachable for those new to KYD. If I ever want to share an episode with someone who's new to KYD, it will be this one! Liked on all 3 of my KZbin accounts.

[@davidkehrer3346]

Great stuff Yellowstone. Looking for Wisconsin top-10 Outdoors. Skip the food and shopping. Skip Milwaukee, there are 100’s of Outdoor great activities.

[@dmn5384]

I love you guys, love your channel, have your trucker hat... but I also really miss your kids being on the channel. Things change, they grow up, but sometimes I go back to rewatch and reminiscing on when your whole family got us started on our own full time rv adventure. And now... we are facing down a near future of our own children peeling off one by one into their own independent lives. Proud, happy for them, but also sad.

[@paulab984]

Obviously we all loved this video but no one is telling you where they'd like to go. Trip planning for me is as much fun as going so I'm all about this kind of video. I'd do one on Michigan and the UP, Apostle Islands, Duluth and Door County. Also the southwest other than the obvious Grand Canyon or Mighty Five (but they would be great too). Maine & the NE is great too. Loved your CA roadtrip with the tiny rig - that would be a great itinerary for us smaller rigs. Or do one about specific things you've done that were fun - places you'd go again when in various areas or places you'd EAT again-very important! My specialty is route planning & finding great campgrounds & what to see. I let others in our travels find the best places to eat.

[@betterwithrum]

Next year! This year, we're exploring the South East. I would love to see a Minnesota and Wisconsin-focused episode. There may be one you already did in the past, but if not, that could be fun!

[@daltonfamily5839]

This is so perfect for our upcoming Big 3 Trip we booked for June/July! Thanks do this! We’d love to see a California NP video that would include Kings Canyon, Sequoia, Yosemite & Redwoods!

[@RiverWoods111]

My parents used to work camp at Yellowstone quite a few years ago. My mom has been gone for 8 years and my dad is in his 90s and can't do much these days. They would spend whole seasons there. At one point I was struggling, and my mom wanted to buy me a small trailer and get me a job up in Yellowstone to work camp because I would have no bills to pay.

[@libbyemler6677]

Oh, please go to Yosemite for a few days! I travel vicariously through you & desperately want to see Yosemite.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Search KYD Yosemite. We visited in SN3. We need to go back, but it's so busy. Hard park to visit these days.

[@NoOverhead]

This video definitely was a lot of work to put together. It's so amazing you guys have so many years of footage of epic adventures. I can't wait to be back in this area this spring. Safe travels, friends!

[@thx4nutin]

This was terrific! Would love to see an Alaska trip. We would even caravan with you if you go again in the future. Something for you to ponder. 😊

[@AnnapolisAgent]

Loved this abbreviated version of places and things to do in a common area. Fun to watch, but best remembered for when we are ready to head that way. We will review. Who knows, another episode like this might change where we want to go...but these three are already HIGH on the list. Guess you will, hopefully, make a play list of these to easily find later. And, add the 3 destinations as bullet points to the side or bottom of thumb nail!!

[@user-uf9xt2ij3x]

Hope to get our RV next week - Newbies! We plan to start with short trips in Florida so we'd be interested in Florida trip tips. :)

[@Tatiacha]

Having lived in that part of Montana if you are going from Yellowstone to Glacier it makes more sense to go to the east side first. BTW for those who have never been there logan pass (going to the sun road) normally does not open until late June or early July.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Good points.

[@brandondraher7842]

Would love to see you guys cover Michigan

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Great state! So much to cover and can easily be done in 10 days. Well, if one had to!

[@paulab984]

Recently watched Season 7 and Season 9 recaps (I was painting a room and wanted some "company", LOL!) and thought, "I wish they still did season recaps". This was sort of like a recap and i enjoyed it, but i love the recaps too.

[@Weathergeekdan]

Love these types of videos!!

[@jenb4583]

Congratulations on Victoria and Duncan's wedding day!

[@windandsea12]

So excited for this episode ❤

[@kimcoffee-isaak2921]

South west. Especially desserts in spring.

[@bethsavel1695]

Please keep this kind of magic coming on your channel. We are planning a trip out West and this exactly what I was looking for to help us plan our trip. What is the best month/months to travel this itinerary? Thank you!!!

[@maggiemyrtlebeach2701]

Absolutely amazing 🤩

[@tracimoney-honey8545]

thanks so much! we are taking 2 grandsons to yellowstone this year!❤

[@jordanh4127]

So funny you brought up a 10 day trip! My wife and I will be taking a 10 day trip come April. We are in Utah so we are very lucky. From slc, to Bryce canyon, capital reef then over to moab. We do moab every year. Oh did I mention she will be 30 weeks pregnant and we will have our 1 1/2 year old. Start em young :) the best trip my other 4 kids talk about is always yellowstone. And that was during the covid craziness. They still talk about it 2 years later.

[@tiffanyhenderson6561]

Loving the adventures and can’t wait till we can venture further from Home once retired. Thank you for sharing your lives.

[@juanitasellshouses]

It's important to note, to drive Going to the Sun, or getting into the park from the West side, you MUST have a reservation if entering between 6am-3pm. Many have been turned away at the gate because they didn't know a reservation was needed. Also, vehicle length is restricted, in some areas. Otherwise, great video!

[@reed4adventures469]

Love these! Helps plan vacation trips.

[@LVE-2DAY]

Great content and spot on! Reserving sites has been an issue for us. When traveling over 1500 miles to get there, with multiple families, it's stressful if you don't book ahead (which is challenging). We'll have to follow some of these ideas when we visit again in July. Jump rock was cool and one we've never heard of, so we'll make sure to hit that with all the kids in a few months.

[@MattsRVReviews]

Wow I loved this style of video! GREAT JOB!

[@debbiec6998]

For your next series, do a 2 week trip thru Zion, Bryce and whatever other NP, National Monuments or great state parks to string together . There is so much in the area, I do not know where to start or finish!

[@crbrumpton]

Very helpful information, Thank you!

[@juliebolduc802]

Such beauty. It’s a shame more than half of Americans will never see any of it in person.

[@rickrichardson5329]

Great recap of these beautiful national parks.

[@nicolec.8009]

You have such cute clothes! Do you have a favorite place you buy like summer clothes. I'm binge watching "The Bird" episodes right now and your wide tanks/tops are adorable! Love your channel

[@billandmaryoshea6532]

Breathtaking. ❤❤

[@cindyfrakes3311]

This is a great review. Thanks.😊
