  Summer peak

  1 jul – 20 augSkollovTrångtBoka tidigt

  July and August carry more than half the park's annual visits. Old Faithful's car park fills by mid-morning, in-park lodging books a year out, and a bison on the road costs you an hour. Källa ↗

  Wildfire smoke

  15 jul – 20 sep · vanligtvisRöksäsong

  The park burns most summers and so does everything upwind of it. Smoke can flatten the light and the views for a week without a fire being anywhere in the park. Källa ↗

  Bison rut

  20 jul – 25 aug · vanligtvisBrunstsäsongRisk

  Bulls bellow, wallow and fight through the Hayden and Lamar valleys in high summer, and they stand in the road while they do it. It is also the season most people are gored for standing too close.

  Elk rut at Mammoth
