The Beartooth Pass has reopened after a day of inclement weather.

Winter conditions have once again closed the Beartooth Pass and Highway.

The Beartooth Pass at the Montana-Wyoming border has been closed due to snowfall and drifting.

Good news for those of you trying to squeeze some Yellowstone fall trips into the schedule: As of this morning, the Beartooth Highway between Red Lodge and Cooke City is open again.

Something to note if you plan on traveling to Yellowstone National Park the next few days: the Beartooth Highway, connecting Red Lodge and Cooke City and eventually the Park’s Northeast Entrance, is temporarily closed because of winter-like conditions.

Another sign of spring: crews are clearing the Beartooth Highway in anticipation of a Memorial Day weekend opening.

The scheduled Dunraven Pass and Beartooth Highway openings hit snags this morning, with bad weather indefinitely delaying the opening of the Beartooth Highway.

We had snow delay the start of the Yellowstone National Park spring season, and now it threatens the fall as well, as the South Entrance, the Beartooth Pass and Craig Pass are closed because of unsafe driving conditions.

Better late than never: After two weeks of delays caused by heavy, late spring snow conditions, the Beartooth Highway opened to vehicle traffic this morning, allowing unfettered travel between Red Lodge and Cooke City.

With several road closures -- including the road between Mammoth Hot Springs and Tower Junction due to rockslide-- on the traditional start of the real summer season in Yellowstone National Park, some planning is in order to avoid closed roads and rough patches.
