The Yellowstone winter travel season is upon us! W

The Yellowstone winter travel season is upon us! Watch the video and see the below @yellowstonenps news release for important winter updates and information.

——————
(News Release) Yellowstone National Park’s winter season begins Sunday, Dec. 15. Annually from mid-December until mid-March, visitors can travel most of the park’s roads from the West, South, East and North entrances by approved commercially guided snowmobiles and snowcoaches and via the non-commercially guided snowmobile access program.

Currently, the accumulation of snowfall on roads varies across the park. This means that visitors will be able to travel in the park, however, the type of transportation used on park roads by commercially guided snowmobile or snowcoach tour companies will depend on road conditions. Throughout the winter season, park staff will work closely with all operators and provide updates as conditions change.

Winter travel ends in mid-March when plowing crews begin to clear a winter’s worth of snow. Roads will start to re-open to automobiles beginning in mid-April.

Easy to tell how bighorn sheep got their name… They are impressive animals. In fact, horns on bighorn rams can weigh 40 pounds and make up between 8-12% of their total body weight. With winter upon us and the rut in full swing, bighorn sheep are more visible this time of year, particularly in the northern range and at the park’s north entrance. 🐏

On this final day of #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth,

On this final day of #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth, and beyond, Yellowstone Forever and partners are committed to Tribal engagement in Yellowstone National Park. We recognize that the connection between nature and culture is not just historical but continues today and will carry forward into the future. This work is more than a partnership; it is a journey of reconnection and stewardship that honors the knowledge and practices of those who have called Yellowstone home long before it was a national park.
