This Week in Yellowstone: August 20th to August 26th, 2026

This week in Yellowstone National Park, from August 20th to August 26th, 2026, I talk about a dirt road just outside of the park that few people ever drive, tell you about the history of glaciers in the park and what they left behind, and offer a reminder to leave things found in the park in the park. I will also give you the complete weather forecast, a cool trail to hike, the snowpack update, the wildlife report, and everything else you need to have an incredible time, “This Week in Yellowstone.” Sorry it was a long one. Backcountry Conditions: https://www.nps.gov/yell/planyourvisit/situationreport.htm I forgot to mention that the Mary Mountain Trail/Nez Perce Trail is closed due to carcasses and bear activity.
