Okay, starting to plan a trip to Wyoming in late May, early
June. We'll be going out through Nebraska (wife has 50th HS
reunion in Nebraska City), and have agreed on Devils Tower as
a destination.
 
After a day or two there, I'm thinking to head over to Grand
Teton and spend a day or two there.  On the map, it doesn't
seem that Yellowstone is all that far, but the routing on
Google maps all seems to go around into Idaho and then
Montana, coming in from the north.  Any high level tips on how
to approach this?  Neither of us have been to Yellowstone, so
that would be a great destination. On the other hand, I'm
starting to wonder if it might be biting off too much on top
of the other two destinations.
 
We probably can take 2-3 weeks total, and I don't like driving
much over 250 miles in a day with the trailer.

 
 Depending on the snow, the last roads in Yellowstone may only
 be opening in late May. I've seen years when the pass between
 Old Faithful and the Lake didn't open until early June. Check
 the Park web-site, assuming the staff that maintains that
 hasn't been laid off

I wondered about snow, seeing the terrain from mapping.  Thanks
for the advice!
