#### Noted for its spectacular sunrises and sunsets and frequent wildlife sightings, this overlook can be conveniently accessed throughout the year.

Whether you have just a few hours to visit Grand Teton National Park or plan to spend a week or more, be sure to include a visit to Blacktail Ponds Overlook. Sunrise and sunset hours offer spectacular views of the majestic mountains. These are also the best times to see wildlife in the area.

In its location east of the Snake River, the overlook has views of all five of the park’s animal habitats. Look west to the mountains, where small mammals such as marmots and pikas live on the often snow-covered alpine peaks. Just below the tree line, black bears roam among the dense lodgepole pines and other tree species of the forest habitat.

Gaze at the meadows all around the overlook. Here elk and bison often travel in herds, munching on grasses. Nearby, the sagebrush areas have scrubbier vegetation that is popular with antelope. Finally, the wetlands of the river, marshy spots and ponds attract beavers. Moose often come here for water as well, which is quite appropriate given the name of the nearby village of Moose. Bring binoculars and snacks to set up for an extended time to quietly watch for wildlife.

Blacktail Ponds Overlook is a 5-minute drive north

east of Moose or 20 minutes north of Jackson. The north-south park highway is generally open year-round, but you may need to use snowshoes or cross-country skis to get close to the overlook in winter.

While you’re in this area, especially at dawn, make a side trip to the T.A. Moulton Barn, just 2.3 miles (3.7 kilometers) east on the aptly named Antelope Flats Road. Early morning sunlight shining on the wooden planks and peaked roof of the old farm building complements the contrasts and shadows of the mountain range to the west. This is one of the most photographed barns in the world.

There is a fee to enter Grand Teton National Park. A weekly pass makes it very convenient to return each day to view different lighting on the mountains and observe fascinating wildlife activity at Blacktail Ponds Overlook.

Our stay was amazing. The views, day and night, were absolutely breathtaking. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the entire experience felt truly unique—like a home away from home. We loved the amenities offered; our favorites were the bonfire s’mores, stargazing with the provided telescope, and the sauna. We also really enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. I would recommend this place to anyone—whether you’re planning a family trip, a getaway with friends, or a romantic escape, this is the perfect spot
