At noon, there were strong winds and continuous rain, and snow even fell in the mountains... Yellowstone is open all year round, but please remember: Winter: Weather reasons may cause road closures, and many roads are not open to ordinary vehicles after snowfall Yellowstone can be considered as "vast territory". The scenic spots in the park are strolling around every corner, and the roads are arranged like an eight character line Option 1 (long driving time): First fly to Salt Lake City International Airport, then drive from Salt Lake City to Yellowstone National Park, a one-way journey of nearly 6 hours Option 2 (expensive airfare and limited rental resources): Fly directly to airports near Yellowstone, such as Yellowstone Airport in West Yellowstone, Yellowstone Regional Airport in Cody, and Jackson Hole Airport at the foot of the Teton Mountains Choose option 3 (best value for money): Fly to Billings Logan International Airport northeast of Yellowstone, drive for 2.5 hours to the small town of Gardiner next to the north gate of Yellowstone, and then drive for 10 minutes to enter Yellowstone Be sure to drive yourself.

The reason is that Yellowstone has a unique geographical structure, and the entire park is actually a huge volcanic crater. You never know what hot springs or geothermal vents you will step on next In terms of area, the largest Moldaoga National Forest Park in China, with 570000 hectares, is not small, while Yellowstone National Park is only 890000 hectares The main reason is that the diversity of geological landforms and biodiversity cannot be compared.
