If you've been procrastinating on packing up your hiking boots and getting to Yellowstone National Park this year, you'd better hurry – the famous National Park closes most of its roads to drivers on Thursday, October 31.
With the park already blanketed in snow last weekend and more snow forecast early next week, there's no doubt that winter conditions are here. After Thursday, the west, south and east entrances and nearly all roads will be closed to regular vehicle traffic to give park officials time to prepare for winter season, which begins on December 15.
