We traveled to Grand Teton, Yellowstone, and Glacier 2 1/2 years ago the end of June. In Yellowstone it was high 60s, low 70s during the day but below freezing at night. Went on a rafting trip early one morning, had to really bundle up, 27 degrees. We stayed at a campground between Grand Teton and Yellowstone, Flagg Ranch Resort, very convenient to see both parks. It only had 15 amp service then, so no air cond but didn't need it. It had all the other amenities, including lodge and restaurant. If you like to hike, do the hike above Jenny Lake in Grand Teton. Also, Lone Star Geyser in Yellowstone is off the beaten path about 3 mile hike round trip, well worth the extra time and no crowds like Old Faithful. The trail is at Kepler Cascades before you come to Old Faithful coming from the south. We also loved the drive to upper and Lower Falls. We saw so many animals, buffalo, wolves, bear, moose, etc. When you encounter buffalo in the road, be prepared to wait, wait, wait. They do not move until they feel like it. Have fun!
