Yellowstone National Park is reopening its flood-damaged north loop at noon on Saturday, in time for the Fourth of July holiday weekend.
Visitors can enter the park via West Yellowstone, Montana; Cody, Wyoming and south entrance near Jackson, Wyoming.
Services available in the north loop will include general stores at Tower and Mammoth Hot Springs with gasoline at both locations. More services may be added as the season progresses. The entire park was closed from June 14 to June 21 due to historic flooding that hit just as the summer tourist season was picking up in the park's 150th anniversary year.
