Yellowstone this month
Long story short leaving MH in Seattle and taking toad back east, what is to do / see in Yellowstone in the next two weeks. I have only been there in May before.

I read today that all the roads in Yellowstone and Teton NP are open except for Dunraven Pass. The story said park employees were back on the job, but they expected it would take 3 days to get everything opened up again, just as it took 3 days to close it down. Then it'll be closed again in a couple weeks.
Weather for the coming week looks pretty good, but keep an eye out for changes. Your escape routes could diminish quickly with a good mountain storm.
Elk should be in rut. That's always fun... just keep a good distance from them, as the bulls can be pretty cantankerous this time of the year. You might also find some good fall colors. Colors are very late arriving in eastern Wyoming this year.
I'd expect most of the Park to be closed by Nov. 1 at the latest. The Black Hills is at a lower elevation, so you might enjoy that if the weather chases you out of Yellowstone. Most of the Hills, except for private tourist attractions, is open all year.
Thanks so much for the on scene report
