Snow travelers will get their chance to travel and check out the snowy scenery in the nation’s first national park.
At 8am on Thursday (December 15th), the East, South and West entrances to Yellowstone National Park will open to snowmobile and snow coach travel for the winter 2022-2023 season.
Park officials say depending on snowpack levels, certain roads within the park may not be open yet.
Services within the park will be limited.
Due to the flooding event that happened earlier this year, the Old Faithful snow lodge will be the only lodging facility within the park that will be open.
Anyone planning on staying there is encouraged to make reservations as soon as possible.
Snow travel within the park will run until early March, and then snow plow crews will get to work clearing the roads for the following summer season.
The road connecting the north to the northeast entrance to the park remains open to motor vehicle traffic year-round.
