Yellowstone National Park officials announced that its northern loop will reopen on July 2, less than three weeks after the park suffered severe flood damage.
With the reopening phase, visitors can access the southern and northern loops through the East Entrance , the West Entrance and the South Entrance . They can also access the roads from Norris Junction to Mammoth Hot Springs, Mammoth Hot Springs to Tower-Roosevelt, and Tower-Roosevelt to Canyon Junction . A 23-mile stretch of the scenic Beartooth Highway has also reopened.
The North Entrance Road and Northeast Entrance Road are still closed to cars, although visitors can use the entrance on foot. Bicycle use through the entrances is under evaluation.While the alternating license plate system will be suspended, officials say it could be reinstated if needed to control crowds and protect park infrastructure. Those driving to the park can find gas available in both Tower-Roosevelt Junction and Mammoth Hot Springs.
