Yellowstone in Winter packing list

From the Yellowstone in Winter blog
How many wool socks is too many?
Warm socks and boots – check!
Long underwear – check!
Hats and gloves – check!
Excitement building – check!
Packing our boots and every scrap of cold weather gear we can muster. Reviewing travel plans and itineraries. Checking the weather … rechecking the weather … Rechecking the weather. Excitement and nerves escalate as we anticipate bison, elk, wolves, geysers, and snow, beautiful snow!
By the look of today’s webcam at Old Faithful and the latest weather report, we should be greeted with all the magic and splendor that nature and Yellowstone have to offer. We have a 40% chance of snow to look forward to upon our arrival tomorrow with highs in the lower 20’s — not too bad, really … Just slightly chillier than our recent North Carolina mornings.
We’ll hit the airport bright and early tomorrow with a big day of travel ahead of us. So, stay tuned, blog readers, there’s much more to come!
