Video of Signal Mountain Campground, Grand Tetons National Park – Wyoming
The Tetons first received government protection in 1897 when Congress created the Teton Forest Reserve. In 1929, the central peaks of the Teton Range and a half dozen lakes at their base officially became Grand Teton National Park. In the mid-1930s John D. Rockefeller, Jr. bought 35,000 acres of property next to the park. In 1943 the Jackson Hole National Monument was created with a 221,000 acre tract of valley lands around the Snake River. By 1950 the original 1929 park was united with the 1943 Jackson Hole National Monument to create the present day 485 square mile park. The Tetons, rising abruptly from the floor of the Snake River Valley, are fault block mountains with their origin about 13 million years ago. Elk and pronghorn antelope make annual migrations through the park. Moose are seen around the Snake River wetlands and mountain lakes. Black bear and grizzlies roam the mountain slopes and wooded lake shores. The park has five campgrounds with 200 miles of trails to explore. The Colter Bay Visitor Center houses an Indian Arts Museum. Music copyright 2008 by Maury Smith. Slideshow and photographs copyright 2008, Creative Juice LLC.

Video of the Rising Sun Campground, Glacier National Park
With over 700 miles of trails, Glacier is a hikers paradise for adventurous visitors seeking wilderness and solitude. This entire area holds great spiritual importance to the Blackfeet, Salish, and Kootenai people. The Blackfeet Indians controlled the vast prairies east of the mountains. The Salish and Kootenai Indians lived and hunted in the western valleys. In 1806, the Lewis and Clark Expedition came within 50 miles of the area that is now the park. George Bird Grinnell was an early explorer to this part of Montana and spent many years working to get the park established. The area was made a Forest Preserve in 1900. President Taft, in 1910, signed the bill establishing Glacier as the countrys 10th national park. The final section of the Going-to-the-Sun Road, over Logan Pass, was completed in 1932 after 11 years of work. The road, a National Historic Landmark, is one of the most scenic roads in North America. Miles of hiking trails follow routes first used by trappers in the early 1800s. Several hotels and chalets, built by the Great Northern Railway in the early 1900s, offer lodging for summer guests to the park. Music by Maury Smith, copyright 2008.
