Want to run with the wolves and goggle at the grizzlies, but aren't willing to trek through the forest to do it? Spring Creek Ranch's annual Wolf and Bear Safari Weekends, offered on several dates in April, May and June each year, drive small groups of guests to animal-viewing sites in comfortable safari vehicles. The tours — morning and evening, when the animals are most likely to be active — are guided by professional biologists. And enjoy views of the Teton Mountains from the ranch's award-winning restaurant, The Granary. Packages begin at $1,350 and include three nights' lodging, meals and transport from the Jackson Hole airport. (800) 443-6139; www.springcreekranch.com.
