Season info for West Yellowstone and local buisnesses
Many come to Island Park in be in nature and make the once in a lifetime trip into West Yellowstone. With the abundance of snow the Park closes some roads. Make sure to take the time to look up opening and closing dates for West Yellowstones Parks entrance
https://www.nps.gov/yell/planyourvisit/parkroads.htm
As well as the Park local buisnesses take time to recoup from one busy season to the next. If there is a specific place you are dying to try or do, make sure you look them up and that they are open during your travel dates.
What to pack
Nights cool in summer and winter is cold
If you are coming our way in the summer the days warm up, almost hot! With the higher elevation the nights cool off quiet a bit. Hence the reason why most rentals don't have an a/c. Bring a jacket or something to help keep the chill at bay for your evening outings.
Island Park is a winter wonderland of beauty!
More snow than the Valley and surrounding areas. Come preparded to endure the abundance of snow! Days can get extremly cold but who would let that stop them from a full day of riding! Bring your warmest clothes and conquer the winter paradise anyway you'd like!
