Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks Announce Phased Reopening
Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks will reopen on a limited basis starting at noon on May 18th, 2020, according to the Park Service. The three-phase plan initially opens the South and East entrances of Wyoming and limits visitor travel to Yellowstone's lower loop. Grand Teton National Park will allow recreational access and open Teton Park Road, Moose-Wilson Road, and North Park Road.
Phase Two of reopening is tentatively scheduled for May/June, and would reopen the Parks' expanded services, including campgrounds, backcountry permits, tours, boating, and some food service. There is no estimated date for Phase Three, which will will reopen hotels and remove restrictions on food service and commercial tours.
