Norris Geyser Basins
The Norris Geyser Basin area is the hottest and most thermally active part of Yellowstone. (imagine a ski tour though here!) Guide and photographer Kt Miller toured through the area yesterday and had these excellent photos to share.
New snow report: cold rain to 8,000', and 12" of fresh at 10,000'.
Weather update: it's been warm and windy the last couple of days here in northern Yellowstone. (Ice forming in the volcanic gullies). With a good snowstorm brewing at the moment.
Some nice snowstorms moving though the Park today!
Mt. Washburn webcam this afternoon. Imagine seeing a grizzly in there!
Snow report: so far out of this storm we've picked up about 2 inches at 8,000', and 6" at 10,000'.
Winter Storm Warning for the mountains of northern Yellowstone. :)
Avalanche Education
Here's to avalanche safety this winter!
Yellowstone Ski Tours will be offering two Level 1 Avalanche Courses this winter: Jan. 14-16, and Jan. 27-29th.
Each 3-day course will cover the fundamentals of avalanches and provide the cornerstone for winter safety in the mountains. More information here.
Autumn is in the air, and winter is on the way.
