Immerse yourself in the wildness of Yellowstone’s landscape by utilizing the ancient technology of snowshoes. This tour provides an unmatchable backcountry experience of magnificent winter ecology. Though winter can seem like the least likely time to go for a walk in the woods, it is really one of the most rewarding. The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem comes alive as wildlife moves from summer to winter ranges. Snow illuminates the landscape in a way you may never have noticed. Wildlife tracks appear frozen in time, and plants and rivers allow for our reflection on resilience and longevity. On this private full-day snowshoe trek, you will explore the environment in an in-depth, hands-on way. Your expert naturalist guide will interpret what you find and what you see, and you may be surprised with the story that arises.

Explore Montana’s Yellowstone National Park in the wintertime alongside a naturalist guide, with an optional hike or snowshoe trek. Avoid the stress of navigating snowy roads with all logistics taken care of, and visit three areas of the park: Mammoth Hot Springs, Lamar Valley, and Calcite Springs overlook. Hear about indigenous culture, the flora and fauna, and more, and enjoy the option to hike to the overlook and check out the hot springs.

This tour is private, fun and casual. It is tailored for your group and your preferences. If you want to sit on the swings and have your photoshoot there and do nothing else, that's fine with me. But I plan to show you (weather will determine the order in which things are done- and we can discuss that while we order our drinks, post adventure. This couple hours is really all about you learning a little bit about this tiny Montana gateway city, seeing the abundance of nature we have in our backyard and taking away some good memories, tastes and if you want to stop and find souvenirs quickly that is fine with me as well. I did not add it but if I can have some souvenirs from the tour for you to take home I will but this is a new tour, and I am really excited to meet you! Please reach out with questions and feel free to introduce yourself and tell me your purpose for being in our little town or in the region in general. I appreciate you stopping by!
