The Dunraven Pass is open again to travel, after being closed by a sudden snowstorm.

New construction has begun on a section of the East Entrance road located near Lake Butte at the northern edge of Yellowstone Lake known as “Nine-Mile.”

The Yellowstone National Park East Entrance will be open nights from 8 p.m. to 10 a.m., beginning Sunday (May 22), as weather conditions allow for the expanded hours overnight.

Here's something you don't see every day: an ermine streaking through the snow at Lake Butte, captured by the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory webcam set up to provide a live view toward Steamboat Point, Mary Bay and the north shore of Yellowstone Lake.

This portable and temporary webcam, installed by the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory, is currently installed at Lake Butte toward Steamboat Point, Mary Bay and the north shore of Yellowstone Lake. It updates hourly, is powered by solar energy, and will be moved to various places of interest relevant to geologic hazards at Yellowstone National Park. It shuts down nightly to conserve energy.
