  • I’ve looked forward to visiting Grand Teton National Park for many years and it did not disappoint! I thought it would be fun to experience two very different nights in the park - camping and staying at a lodge. You know I got some hiking in and took in all the sights, including meeting a few surprise friends on the trail 🐻 I hope you enjoy coming along for the adventure! Thanks for watching ❤︎

    I love that you stayed here! The Jackson/Teton/Yellowstone area is one of my favorite places in the world. Staying in the NPS lodges are expensive, but so worth it! When my family & I went to the Big Island a few years ago, we splurged to stay a few nights at Volcano House in Volcanos National Park, such an amazing experience! Happy travels!

    Another very interesting location, I would be scared as hell doing a walk solo with bears in the vicinity. The scenery was stunning and the diversity of the landscape on your travels is awesome. From the sand dunes to peaks and lakes. I’m one of your educated but lower income viewers so I wouldn’t be staying in a cabin at that price but I’m very glad you can and bring us along for the journey. We can live vicariously through your experiences and opportunities. Keep doing what you’re doing Jen, it’s working 👍. Something you may like to consider that I’ve seen other (UK)RUclipsrs use is a little tiny fluffy clip on Bluetooth microphone, don’t know if you’ve come across them at all. I can hear you well the majority of the time but now and again on this video your lovely voice is quite faint. I do understand what you’re trying to convey so don’t worry too much, just you may like to consider it.

    I am with you, Jenn, I don't want to see any bears!! Since a child I have had an unreasonable fear of bears, I used to have nightmares. I had never seen any bears except in zoos, so I am not sure where that fear came from. I am not really afraid of them anymore but still don't want to see them in the wild except from the safety of my vehicle. Several years ago, we were camping in Lake Itasca State Park. Early one morning I was riding my bicycle on a trail. I came around a curve and saw a bear sitting a little way off in a meadow. We saw each other at the same time. He took off one way. I just kept on peddling the other way. We visited the Grand Tetons two years ago but only spent a day there. I want to go back with the RV and stay awhile. It is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing the beauty.

    My kids' father and I are separated, and so the kids are with me for half of the week now. It is a hard transition not being with them everyday, of course. However, I do feel lighter in spirit, not in a relationship. I feel like when I do see them, I will be able to be more present with them because I am not in a stressful partnership. All that to say, I am enjoying your channel & thanks for the inspiration!🌟✌️✨️

    My family saw two bear cubs playing by the side of the road while on vacation in the Smoky Mountains. My Dad and I have super zoom cameras and almost had the photos of a lifetime when the woman in the car just ahead of us got out of her car to get up close and personal with the cubs. You can believe that she scared those cubs half to death and caused everyone in my car to start screaming, "get back in the car, lady!!!" I so thought I was going to see her get mauled by a bear.

    I’m so loving all these adventures. Thank you for sharing them here. You inspired me recently. I had driven to another state to visit family & the day that I left to come back home, I found a beautiful 3 mile hike that I could do before hopping into the car for the long drive home. I almost didn’t do it, but then I thought back on what you said in one of your videos about doing things when you can bc life is just too short. So, I did my hike, was rewarded w/ an amazing overlook at the summit & then I drive home. I was so glad to have hiked that day. It was hot but beautiful outside. The trail wasn’t very crowded bc it was a weekday. So, thank you Jen!

    I watched with interest but had difficulty because of the rain and trekking sounds, hearing what was being said. I tried to watch again using the CC but the only words were Music and “please”with other nonsensical jibber jabber. So disappointed as I wanted to learn more about this area. Yikes! A 🐻! I would have broken into a jogwabble( because of my disability I can’t run!) Fun video but would appreciate hearing it. Happy Trails!

      I hear all the other people and ambient noises around her just fine. I think outside of closed doors she’s uncomfortable with vlogging so she mumbles and speaks softly or half whispers. Bc as soon as she back indoors you can hear her fine. So I don’t think it’s the mic. 🤷‍♀️

    PSA: "Hey Bear" is not a greeting. You're supposed to say it/make noise before you see the bear! So many people wait until they see the bear before making noise. Not saying thats what you did, just a general reminder from a fellow bear-scared person. 😊
