JACKSON HOLE, Wyo. — With inclement weather on the way Saturday night through Sunday, Yellowstone has closed most entrances and roads in the park a day earlier than anticipated.
The West, South, and East entrances and all roads, with one exception, closed at 7pm today in Yellowstone National Park. The one exception is the road from the park’s north entrance at Gardiner, Montana, through Mammoth Hot Springs to the northeast entrance and communities of Cooke City and Silver Gate, Montana. This road is open all year, weather-permitting.
Nearly all entrances and roads were scheduled to close at 12:01 a.m. Monday, November 8. The park annually closes roads in early November to prepare them for the winter season and snowmobile and snowcoach travel, which will begin Wednesday, December 15.
