Any new developments out in Yellowstone? Thinking of taking a trip there next year. Curious if any road construction will be planned or if any hotel remodeling is ongoing. Last time we went there the Old Faithful Inn was under construction.

Also, for those that have been there lately - what are your top 5 things to do there, especially for older visitors. Will be taking our senior parents with us this time around.

I can't comment on next year but it looks like road construction will be starting up right after Labor Day this year.........we will be visiting just after Labor Day so the road construction will dictate some creative driving for us. It won't be a short drive from Grants Village to Old Faithful for us

Spending a week in the area and I can't wait!

Also there was some earlier road closures I believe around Old Faithful.

Link below has some info:

Yellowstone National Park (U.S. National Park Service)

Thermals melt road, force closure in Yellowstone National Park | KTVQ.com | Q2 | Billings, Montana

If anyone has any advice on the best way to get around with some of the closures please chime in!

Thanks

AHHHHHHHHH. We are staying at Grants for three days, still debating on routes in, either Northeast entrance or Northern entrance and leaving through the south entrance................there is way to much to see and do, wish I had a summer off to really take in everything!
