I went late last September, and have also been a couple of times right when it opened in the spring. I have no idea what facilities are open now. For wildlife, one of the best places is the Lamar Valley, and it's usually best and less crowded early morning/late afternoon. One good plan is to spend a night or two just outside the Northeast Gate in Silver Gate or Cooke City. That way you're heading out and back through the valley at the best times of day. My trip in the fall was with my dad who has mobility issues. We booked nights in some of the in park lodges. Canyon was pretty expensive, but the cabins at Old Faithful weren't too bad. This won't really match your needs/question but I'll put my itinerary because it worked really well for a week-ish trip in/out of Jackson with non camping/hiking old folks and we saw a lot but weren't doing 18 hour days. Day 0/1: Arrive Jackson Day 2: Grand Teton Loop (past Jenny Lake) Day 3: Drive to Old Faithful Lodge. See Old Faithful and do the Geyser Basin boardwalk. Day 4: Lonestar Geyser Trail, Grand Prismatic Spring, Madison River. Back to Old Faithful Lodge Day 5: Loop past Yellowstone Lake, Mud Volcano, Hayden Valley and around to Norris Geyser Basin. Stay Canyon Day 6: Hayden Valley (pre-breakfast), Yellowstone Falls Overlook, Dunraven Pass to Lamar Valley and over to Mammoth. Day 7: Mammoth Hot Springs, drive back to Jackson.
