It's been one system after another coming through here, rain down in the
valleys, and snow up high. Predicted high here tomarrow is 53 derees, best to be prepared for anything. You will need a decent tent, and outer clothing that will keep the inner layers dry. Guess you likely already know that. And as Bill mentioned, be carefull about the wind, wind related fatalities are not uncommon up there. Just a couple years ago a ranger lost his life after capsizing, before that it was Boy Scouts. I don't mean to negative at all, you'll just have more fun if you know what you're getting into. I am north of the park, about fifty miles. The Gallatin flows north out of the park, and I'm very near it at Bozeman. Dennis Whoa! Snow. Well, thanks for the info. And on that topic, I started reading Nelson's book last night. He mentioned the water temp in that area is usually in the 50s even in mid-summer. That's something to be concerned about. I have a wet suit, so will definitely bring it. You are north of YS a bit? Paddlec1 wrote: Weather here can be very nice this time of year, but right now it is snowing. It's been snowing in the high country for three days now, so you might want to consider (or maybe you already have) taking cold weather gear. Dennis |
