  The lifts shut, the valley trails turn to mud and the grizzlies come out of the dens onto the same low ground. Carry spray from April, and expect half the mountain-town businesses to take their own holiday. Quelle ↗

  Yellowstone gateway summer

• Feiertag

  Fourth of July in the mountains

  3.–5. JuliNationalfeiertagVollFrüh buchen

  The Fourth of July weekend is one of the busiest of the mountain summer: lodging and campsites book out and roads into town are slow. Fireworks are often cancelled or replaced by drone shows when wildfire danger runs high. Quelle ↗

• Risiko

  Wildfire smoke

  15. Juli – 15. Sep. · meistRauchsaison

  Late-summer smoke from fires across Montana, Idaho and Canada settles into the valley and can hold for a week. It arrives on exactly the days that would otherwise be the clearest. Quelle ↗

• Saison

  Hyalite ice-climbing season

  1. Dez. – 15. März · meistEissaison

  The canyon road is plowed through the winter specifically to keep the frozen falls reachable, and there are more routes up there than anywhere else in the lower 48. It is busy at weekends and quiet midweek. Quelle ↗

  Ski season

  5. Dez. – 15. Apr. · meistFrüh buchen

  Bridger Bowl runs twenty minutes from town from early December to mid-April, and Big Sky an hour south holds on later. The Ridge at Bridger needs an avalanche transceiver, not a lift ticket. Quelle ↗

• Risiko

  Deep cold snaps

  15. Dez. – 20. Feb. · meistExtreme Kälte

  Arctic air spills over the divide a few times each winter and holds the valley below minus twenty for days. Cars need block heaters and the ski hill gets very quiet. Quelle ↗
