  Yellowstone gateway summer

  Bozeman is the airport for the north end of Yellowstone, so the whole park's summer traffic passes through town. Rental cars and rooms are priced for it and the canyon road south is slow. Fonte ↗

• Regra

  Hoot-owl fishing restrictions

  1 Jul – 5 Set · normalmenteFechamentos

  Fourth of July in the mountains

  3–5 JulFeriado nacionalLotadoReserve cedo

  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. Fonte ↗

• Risco

  Wildfire smoke

  15 Jul – 15 Set · normalmenteTemporada de fumaça

  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. Fonte ↗

• Temporada

  Hyalite ice-climbing season

  1 Dez – 15 Mar · normalmenteTemporada do gelo

  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. Fonte ↗

  Ski season

  5 Dez – 15 Abr · normalmenteReserve cedo

  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. Fonte ↗

  15 Dez – 20 Fev · normalmenteFrio extremo

  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. Fonte ↗
