Take a trip to Yellowstone’s wild side. 70% of Yellowstone’s wintering wildlife spends the colder months in the Northern Range. The Northern Range extends from the park’s Lamar Valley on the Northeast Entrance Highway to the southern Paradise Valley 30 miles north of the North Entrance. The snowcoach tours offer great elk and bison habitat, however the north side offers excellent elk, bison, wolf, coyote, pronghorn, mule deer, whitetail deer and bighorn sheep habitat. Many visitors in the late March and early April will be treated with some of the first grizzly and black bear sightings of the year.
