This popular national park near Yellowstone is a great place for a winter getaway. Here you will find Jackson Hole and the 13,775-foot Grand Teton mountain too. Each year, over three million travelers come here to fish or hike to the great glaciers. Of course, the top two reasons to visit this park in the winter are to go snowboarding or skiing.
If you’re not into winter sports, you can look for animals that come out at the start and close of winter when there are fewer visitors.
More than six million tourists visit this park annually. Here you will find one of the largest canyons on the planet, the famous Grand Canyon. Although the North Rim of this great canyon closes in the winter, the arguably more popular South Rim is open all year and it looks even more beautiful when dusted with a bit of snow. So while you can’t hike the entire canyon rim to rim as your roving writer and his father once did, the place has an otherworldly feel in the midst of winter.
