Lurker, since you're working at Madison (I assume you'll be a camp host & have hookups??), getting there is a bit simpler than going in the north entrance - you will enter through the west entrance. (Good place to stay there, which may be open in April, should you need a spot the night before checking in for work, is Grizzly RV Park in "West" -aka West Yellowstone.) Best way to get to West is I-15 north to Idaho Falls, then US 20 northeast - goes all the way into the park through West. Madison is 14 miles east of the west entrance of the park.
