Drive to the top of Signal Mountain. At the top, there's a small parking area and a few steps up to a viewing platform. You can see for miles. Last time, I watched a hot air balloon go by - below me.
Drive the Jenny Lake Loop Road. There's a turnout that holds about 6 cars. Walk over to Jenny Lake (about 20 feet), sit on a big boulder, just stare at the lake and mountains, and feel your blood pressure drop about 50 points. Even if there are others there, everybody whispers. Maybe the calmest I've ever been.
Yellowstone is great, but very commercial when compared to the Tetons.
