10 Day Unforgettable RV Trip in the Tetons, Yellowstone & Glacier

[@johnniedonnelly1334]

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....

[@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.

[@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.

[@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!

[@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

[@melissaweyrick5311]

I love Sundays, cook a good meal and watch KYD

[@nature10879]

The United States is truly beautiful. The nature, the animals, the people, the road trips one can take all over the states, The food (yes any food can be cooked here), the hospitality and diversity and etc.

[@Craig32]

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

[@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..

[@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

[@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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@ITYWITFL]

Hope you left California liberalism behind.

[@prepper1013]

@@ITYWITFL Karen, I sure did...

[@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.

[@mikenowak2360]

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

[@rvcruising]

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

[@IntothewestOkotoks]

Great itinerary, we’ll definitely use this advice in planning a Yellowstone/Grand Teton trip for next year from Calgary. I just want to add, although I know this was a US focused itinerary, and you touched on going into Canada, Glacier is actually part of the first international peace park with Waterton National Park in Alberta. The combined “Waterton Glacier International Peace Park” is a UNESCO world heritage site, and though Waterton is small, it’s very much worth crossing the border for (often forgotten after the more popular four Canadian Rocky Mountain National Parks). There’s even a hike and “cruise” that hits a remote spot in Glacier NP from Waterton. Anyway, great video thanks for sharing!

[@11MonsieurHobbes]

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

[@sallyjaynes2433]

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

[@ejs6010]

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

[@rebeccaewing473]

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

[@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!

[@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.

[@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.

[@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!! 👏👏❤️👏👏

[@BrettDegnim]

I truly enjoy your videos. They show how wonderful this lifestyle is even with the problems that do arise. Keep up the great work and continue to enjoy your life.

[@RVAmerica]

We were at all of these this past summer except the Grand Tetons. The only difference is we spent a month in Glacier. It was so totally worth it. Lynn and Danny

[@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 .

[@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.

[@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!

[@pmroveda]

Camped at Jenny Lake in 1977, 24 yrs old. Tenters only!

[@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!

[@MattsRVReviews]

Wow I loved this style of video! GREAT JOB!

[@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.

[@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 ❤

[@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.

[@DragonWarriorMama]

All of these is on my bucket list how completely beautiful

[@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.

[@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.

[@brettelizabethspore]

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

[@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!

[@tywebb9879]

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

[@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..

[@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!!

[@LeToQuee]

Great video. Were planning our first trip to these parks and this helps alot 👍

[@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.

[@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.

[@kimcoffee-isaak2921]

South west. Especially desserts in spring.

[@jesse_cheese]

I see America because of you guys… thanks

[@penelopebartell840]

Note that, in summer at midday, Grand Prismatic usually has a long line to enter the parking lot. The entrance is on the west side of the road, and the line is facing south. So, those who head there after Old Faithful may have a difficult time getting into the line. And wherever you are in any of these parks, have bear spray and know how and when to use it.

[@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".

[@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.

[@brucegruenbaum]

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

[@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.

[@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!

[@philipgerry5228]

Going out the NE entrance is the Beartooth Highway. It’s an all day trip that circles back to Cody.

[@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!

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

[@rovingrosses3288]

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

[@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!

[@lwhite530]

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

[@skipcollins4774]

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

[@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.

[@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!!

[@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.
