Mudslide Cleared, Road and East Gate Open

By Mike Johnson 

According to an operator at Pahaska Tepee, the Northfork mudslide has been cleared and the road has reopened.

The Yellowstone road conditions recorded message (1-307-344-2117) has also been changed and no longer mentions the mudslide. It does say that all entrances and all roads are open in the park.

I personally counted five WY Dot dumptrucks with three towing frontend loaders heading toward the northfork mudslide about 7:30 PM Saturday night.
