One other thing, to get from Victor to GTNP and Yellowstone, the closest route is over Hwy 31, Pine Creek Pass to Swan Valley, Hwy 26, over to Alpine and up through the Snake River Canyon - low elevation - and into Jackson. We've driven that route and it's not bad. Your other option is to take the Teton Scenic Byway up to Ashton, then get on Hwy 20 and into West Yellowstone. If you're in a Class A, does it help to sit in the back?
Hi Renee! - Can you speak to HWY 31? Seems that is the most unknown to everyone about this route? Thank you for your help.
Yes, Lori, we've been over it. It is a climb, ups and downs, with some curves and two lane, but when I say a climb it's not like Teton Pass climb. The terrain is fairly level with the highway if that helps and lots of trees and underbrush. You don't feel like you are up high and there are no sudden drop-offs. Here is a
video I found on YouTube showing Hwy 31 from Swan Valley to Victor.This video is in reverse, Swan Valley to Victor, but it will give you an idea. The road has since been widened and as a passenger heading SW, you will be on the mountainside of the road. You can find just a video on just about any Hwy or road on YouTube. Hope this helps.
