Yellowstone National Park begins opening its roads Saturday for motorized oversnow vehicles, kicking off the park’s winter season. According to park officials, visitors will be able to travel the park’s interior roads on commercially-guided snowmobiles and snowcoaches from the West and South Entrances beginning at 8:00 am. Travel will be primarily limited to commercially guided snowmobile tours and snow coaches, but visitors who have proper permits can also participate in the non-commercially guided snowmobile trips. Meanwhile, travel between the North Entrance and Swan Lake Flat will be limited to commercially-guided snowcoaches. This section will remain closed to visitor snowmobile use until more snow accumulates on the road. Travel from the park’s East Entrance over Sylvan Pass is scheduled to begin Friday, December 22, weather dependent. Lodging and services are limited during the winter.
