Yellowstone National Park

Hey Boo Boo...there's some fentanyl in my pic-uh-nic basket...

Yellowstone Park technically never closes, but most of the roads do. Beginning November 1 there are just two gates open (weather permitting) throughout the winter.

This kid is wise beyond his years and more Yellowstone tourists should listen.

The longest road in America stretches over 3,300 miles and crosses 10 states, one of which is Montana for just 12 miles

Many of the trees are aspens and so they evoke beautiful golden colors. Contrasted against the rivers and mountains, it creates a spectacular visual.

Montana is getting a reputation for being unfriendly.

A very popular and highly visited tourist destination is much better if you go off season in Montana.

Government shutdowns are very confusing events, and it's not always exactly clear what happens with things like National Parks. Different things have happened during different government shutdowns over the years. Not all shutdowns are the same. Administrations have important decisions to make about actually locking the gates.

Wolves can be terrifying creatures, but this video shows a softer side.

Another day, another tourist deciding to not listen to the rules of Yellowstone National Park. Check out this video.
