Of possible interest to some in the geyser gazing community:

A new Winter Use Plan and Environmental Impact Statement for Yellowstone are currently under preparation. A public comment period is open until March 30.  The public is invited to submit any written comments on the issues and alternatives they would like considered in the new plan.  Letters to papers here in Montana have included support for the plowing option from West to Madison and Old Faithful during winter months to allow wheeled vehicle access.  Others advocate for only limited over-snow vehicle access. 

The West Yellowstone News reports open house meetings for the public to learn more about the issues in order to provide comments which will be used in preparing the EIS  will be held:

March 15 - Cheyenne, WY from 6:30 - 8:30 pm at the Little America Inn, 200 West Lincoln Way
March 17 - Washington, DC from 6:30 - 8:30 pm at The Old Post Office, 12th and Pennsylvania Ave., NW
March 22 - Cody, Wy from 6:30 - 8:30 pm in the Cody Club room, Beck Ave. and 13th St.
