When do the roads open up in Yellowstone?
Trying to plan a trip thru Yellowstone for late April. We are traveling form Portland, OR to STL, MO and wanted to travel thru Yellowstone and the Blackhills. We will NOT have our camper but wanted to...

They NEVER open the roads early, and they NEVER allow any travel until the road is officially open. The North Entrance is open Year round. As for the snowpack, it is nearly 150% of normal and is approaching all time records.
Looks like we should be able to enter at the West Entrance and head to the South Entrance. Might be able to stop by Grand Prismatic Springs, Old Faithful, Grant Village and Moose Falls on the way to Jackson. I guess the North and East entrance roads will still be closed till May sometime.
