Between the 24th of August and the 11th September 2019, we spent nearly 3 wonderful weeks in the north-west part of USA to discover Grand Teton NP and Yellowstone NP. It was our first trip in this part of USA, and each day was full of surprises, with countless breath-taking landscapes and wild animals encounters. Each time we travel to USA we come back with wonderful souvenirs and a furious envy to come back!

After one afternoon in Salt Lake City, we took the road to Grand Teton NP and Yellowstone NP. It was a beautiful road trip ! I drove 2.050 miles i.e. 3.700 km, on the wonderful scenic roads of Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Nevada states.
