I was born on Norton Air Force Base in Southern California, and when the mountains, beaches and streams became too familiar, I was off to school in Colorado until I became fixated with old textiles and native American art. This focus enabled me to travel extensively from the American Southwest to the tip of Patagonia. My academic focus is in environmental studies, and my professional endeavors included two galleries focusing on native American textiles. In my experience I have found offering tours tailored to the desires and needs of a group as they travel thru Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks offer the greatest reward in terms of overall quality of experience. With over 40 years of flyfishing experience professionally and 50 years of extensive travel in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, I have covered enough ground in the past three seasons alone doing ecotours in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks to cross the United States 15 times. Beyond this region, my hobbies and passions include fishing, surfing, skiing, and anything that floats. It is my desire to capitalize on the ever-changing visual opportunities of wildlife, geothermal activity, and nature's spectacular scenery while sharing the history, geology, and ecology of this unique corner of the world. -Licensed CUA Gran Teton and Yellowstone National Park 200 tours with an additional company -40 years of fly fishing experience -50 years of extensive travel in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem I have no physical limitations or health restrictions regarding my tours. I am licensed to take you into and through both National Parks.

Overview of your Jackson Hole tour

Majestic mountains form a backdrop while searching for bison, elk, moose, pronghorn, bear, and birds of prey. A few of the many areas we will visit may include Elk Flats to view wildlife in a classic prairie setting, famed Jenny Lake with its bucolic views of the lake and mountains, Willow Flats, Pilgrim Creek in search of grizzly, or Mormon Row to visit the historic barns with their iconic background. We will visit Jackson Lake Lodge with its breathtaking views, and perhaps take a short stroll along String Lake (you will see why). Over the course of the day we will revisit the historic significance from the first European exploration by John Colter in 1807 and his interactions with the various native American cultures. I am anxious to share with you how the the unique cultural and geologic history shaped the Grand Teton National Park. We will explore how the pristine Snake River headwaters play an important role in the challenge of climate change today.

Greg was a wonderful tour guide - very knowledgeable of the area and quite flexible! Despite the downpour, Greg happily agreed to take us on a great easy hike around Leigh and String Lakes in the Grand Tetons. It was so beautiful, even in the rain! Can't imagine what it would be like with blue skies! Very nice that he provided binoculars in his van for his passengers to use. He went over and above to get us to all of our other requested viewing sites so we could take photos. Our personalized tour exceeded our expectations. He was easy to communicate with prior to the booking, friendly, and very professional throughout the tour. Even after he had dropped us off to our hotel following the tour, he called to report that there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky! We took home great memories of our Grand Teton National Park tour with Greg.

Greg did an excellent job on our tour. The best part is he took us off the normal course and showed us sights that most tourist nver have the privilege to see. We saw bison and learned the differnce between bison and buffalo. He took us in the back woods and showed us a whole herd of Prong horn antelope. He took us to the bank of the snake river and showed us trout swimming in the river. He has a background in science and spent time explaining the development of the tetons to us. My son and I enjoyed it thoroughly, my wife not so much. (haha). We would recommend Greg’s tour as an excellent way to get acquainted with the tetons.

Greg was the best private guide one could hope for. He was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and a great communicator. He is also a great driver, which added to the overall comfort. He was very accommodating to the needs of our group. He is highly recommended by our group.
