I hated the fact of the drive and was looking for things to do to break up the trip. Last edited by AZBuck 09-28-2013 at 10:48 PM.ĪZBuckThanks for the information. Sorry, I can't remember the name of the motel, but you should be able to find it with something with a simple search. I remember a few years ago when I visited in the fall that I found a nice clean cheap motel room in West Yellowstone, just outside the park boundaries, and I practically had the entire town to myself. A check at any of the regional ranger offices should yield a few hikes well within your comfort zone.Īs far as lodging goes, you should be able to find something relatively inexpensive since you'll be well off-season. In addition, you'll be driving through both the Lolo and Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forests. Those sites are: the Historical Museum at Fort Missoula, Beavertail Hill State Park, the Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site, and the World Museum of Mining. There are a few things to do along the way where you can take an hour or so off from driving, and you can do one or two on the way from Coeur d'Alene to Yellowstone and one or two on the way back. The south loop opened for the first time since the disaster June 22 when the park opened three of its five entrances: the West Entrance in West Yellowstone, Montana the South Entrance. And, unfortunately, there's really only one real option for a route, so you can't explore different roads going and coming. The drive from Coeur d'Alene to Yellowstone will be gorgeous, however at 460 miles, some of it on two-lane roads, it's going to take the better part of a full day to make the drive. There are various lodging options options throughout the park, we also stayed at Grant village lodge that we found nice and less commercialised than Canyon, but the rooms were $155 per night There is no cooking allowed in the rooms and not even a kettle in the room but there is a cafeteria, dining room and Deli nearby, the Deli is just ridiculously expensive. If you have checked the Yellowstone site for availability with no luck, keep checking as cancellations are not uncommon. They were clean and tidy but basic but good value for $99 per night by comparision. We also had a cabin in Yellowstone NP at Canyon. We were there just 3 weeks ago and liked the Moose Creek Inn in W Yellowstone as a budget friendly lodging option. If that were not enough you have the Grand Tetons to the south of the park ! When you arrive in the park you will be given guidebooks and the Rangers are always happy to talk to you about their favourite spots. As well as Old Faithful there are Norris and Firehole river Geyser basins, Mammoth Hot Springs, the Grand canyon of the Yellowstone, the Hayden Valley, Yellowstone lake and West Thumb, Tower Falls, Gibbon Falls, the Lamar Valley and much, much more ! All are worthy of a visit but it's important that you do things in your own time and if you don't get around to everything there is always another day. Event performances will also feature a dazzling dance party, spectacular laser light shows and Hot Wheels toy giveaways.Yellowstone is huge and there is no shortage of things to see and do. The popular family entertainment tour brings audiences the only opportunity to watch their favorite Hot Wheels Monster Trucks – Mega Wrex™, Tiger Shark™, Boneshaker™, Bigfoot® and more, plus the all-new Gunkster™ – LIGHT UP the floor in outrageous monster trucks competitions and battles. They are even going to have some giveaways throughout the event! And, they'll wrap up their stop in Maine with a 2:30 PM show on Sunday, October 22nd.ĭuring the shows, you'll be able to see some of your favorite Hot Wheels vehicles driving around the arena, crushing cars. There will also be two shows, 12:30 PM and 7:30 PM. One of the great things is that the show will be in town for several days, so you will have plenty of time to get to see this amazing event! There'll be a show at 7:30 on Friday, October 20th. You'll be able to catch this amazing event this October at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor.
