Spring? LOL. Try summer.
Spring in Yellowstone, and other parts of the West is May-June, when we got to Madison CG in early June, we got snow & 30 degrees, then it warmed gradually each day.
X3. In 1984 when I was young, crazy/stupid and a newlywed my husband and I packed our camping gear into our Datsun pick-up truck and headed west (from MA) for a three-week honeymoon. Didn't know where we going but wound up at Yellowstone. We arrived at the beginning of June to snow in both Yellowstone and Grand Teton. Night temps dropped into the 20s. Woke up to a frozen water bucket. If you don't mind cold and potentially bad weather go in the spring. Personally I'd wait until a little later in the year.
