Where should we stay?
Your decision may depend on how much time you have and what you want to see the most.If you plan on visiting Yellowstone National Park for only a few days and want to experience some of the main attractions then West Yellowstone would be a good base.If you want to have the full park experience then perhaps lodging (住宿) at Old Faithful would be a good choice.If you want to view the most wildlife,then we suggest the Northeast Entrance. |
When is the best time to visit the park?
This depends on what your interests are.Spring has abundant wildlife,roaring waterfalls and wild weather.Summer has it all including the most crowds,so you'd better get out early and eat your breakfast on the road!Fall is a special time of year.Everything seems to be declining including the crowds.Winter is a time of being a bit of social isolation. In years past it was more "economical" to visit most of the park. Now it is more restricted unless you can afford a snow-coach or guided snowmobile tour. |
Can I get Cell and Wi-Fi?
Free public Wi-Fi is available at Al-bright Visitor Center and at some park lodges for registered guests.Cell service is extremely limited,with reception only available in or near major developed areas.In summer,service often reaches its limit in these areas.Yet,it is sad to see the latest generation fade away from normal everyday activities and conversation.Get out,look around,admire the wonders.There're plenty of natural and human distractions around every corner.The last thing we want to do is distract visitors from Yellowstone's wonders especially while driving. |
