This is a winter drive from the gateway town of Gardiner, Montana into the North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park (the first U.S. National Park, established in 1872). Only the North and Northeast entrances are kept open in winter (and the 52 miles between them, across the Lamar Valley). From Mammoth, the road to Norris closes at the Upper Terrace in the winter. The Mammoth area is a wintering ground for some of the park's bison and elk, which means wolves can sometimes be seen here.
