Yellowstone National Park’s South Entrance and the road between West Thumb and Old Faithful over Craig Pass opens today, with all five entrances now open for the season.

The end of the worlders say a Yellowstone eruption is imminent as the government quietly evacuates cities in the area, but the experts say the Yellowstone volcanic system is indeed larger than previously assumed, but also a lot more stable.

Yes, we know most of you haven’t yet hit Yellowstone National Park this year, but now’s the time to plan your 2015 Yellowstone trip, as lodging reservations are now on sale.

An overhaul of visitor facilities in the Jenny Lake area of Grand Teton National Park has been approved by National Park Service officials, with the Grand Teton National Park Foundation leading the fundraising.

The Yellowstone East Entrance is still scheduled to open Friday, May 2 at 8 a.m., but National Park Service officials are warning about the potential of heavy, wet snow slides that could halt traffic.

This weekend marks the last time you’ll be able to drive into Yellowstone National Park in 2012, with most road closures scheduled for next Monday at 8 a.m.

Hiking in Yellowstone National Park is never just a matter of throwing on a pair of comfortable boots and heading down the trail; it takes some careful planning and taking various conditions into account.

One big condition is the presence of bears in an area. Broadly speaking, the National Park Service wants to keep hikers away from areas where bears are likely to be or known to be active, especially in the spring. These restrictions aren't widely known -- they're posted on the NPS website (where these descriptions come from) and at the trailheads, but not prominently at visitor centers -- but they're very important for any Yellowstone visitor.
