National Park Service officials have resumed a search for a missing Grand Teton hiker, 27-year-old Cian McLaughlin, based on new information from a local climbing guide.

And the dry, warm conditions continue: the Grand Teton fire danger has been upgraded by the National Park Service to high, as no rain is present in the 10-day weather forecast.

We’re looking at the start of a hot, dry summer, so its no surprise that the Yellowstone fire danger level is now estimated to be at a moderate level by the National Park Service.

The numbers are in: May 2021 Yellowstone visitation set an all-time record for the month, as National Park Service officials tallied 658,513 recreational visits this year.

The first 2021 Yellowstone bear incident has been reported to National Park Service officials, as a solo hiker was attacked while hiking on Beaver Ponds Trail at Mammoth Hot Springs.

Unless you made your reservations months ago, a Yellowstone overnight trip in 2021 will be a challenge, with lodging virtually sold out for the summer and available regional housing on the expensive side.

Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park visitation was up in April 2021 when compared to April 2019, as the interest in park visitation began early this year.

With the opening of several road segments today at 8 a.m., all roads slated to be open this year in Yellowstone National Park are accessible to the public.

We were warned Yellowstone automated shuttles were on the way in 2021, and they’ll be here in May, when testing of two new systems begins at Canyon Village.

Yellowstone roads open this Friday, when western portions of the Grand Loop road will allow motorized traffic at 8 a.m. on April 16.
