“It’s snowed there for days, even during the middle of the day,” says reader. “It must be adding up by now: Newsworthy because it’s also the Park’s Centennial. Yellowstone isn’t even known for Glaciers, and it’s like 500 miles south of Glacier Park.”

25 Aug 2016 –  According to the Yellowstone Insider, “the Beartooth Highway is closed on the Wyoming side, owing to winter conditions.”

“According to the Wyoming Department of Transportation, as of 9:07 a.m. MST, U.S. 212 between WY 296 and the Beartooth Pass was shut down after an abrupt snowstorm created icy conditions on the road.

“There is no indication at this time when the Wyoming DOT will reopen the road.”
