United States (Rocky Mountains & Yellowstone)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

The Rocky Mountains stretch more than 3,000 miles through the western United States, forming one of North America's most dramatic and iconic landscapes. The range is home to world-class national parks — including Grand Teton and the legendary Yellowstone, the world's first national park, famous for its geothermal geysers, hot springs, and diverse wildlife such as bison, wolves, and grizzly bears. Travellers come for hiking, backcountry camping, white-water rafting, and skiing in winter, with destinations like Jackson Hole, Bozeman, and Colorado's mountain towns serving as popular bases. The sheer scale and variety of the terrain — from high alpine meadows to deep canyons — makes it a bucket-list region for both adventure seekers and nature lovers.

America's Greatest Treasures: Self-Launched Denver to Salt Lake City

A self-launched version of Cosmos's 10-day coach tour from Denver to Salt Lake City, covering the Black Hills, Crazy Horse, Mount Rushmore, Deadwood, Cody, Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Salt Lake City. Instead of a 42-50 person motorcoach and guided commentary, you'll travel by Greyhound/FlixBus and rent a car only for the park-heavy middle section, staying in hostels, motels and park gateway guesthouses. All the headline sights are public land or free to enter on foot; you self-book the optional extras (chuckwagon supper, Snake River float) directly. Costs are rough backpacker/budget estimates in GBP and exclude international flights.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for United States (Rocky Mountains & Yellowstone) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
