What to Wear for a Yellowstone Vacation

Welcome to the mountains! You should dress appropriately and be prepared.  While summer time is typically pleasant, you should have some warm clothes and rain gear regardless of the forecast.  Usually if you are visiting July through September, you can expect cool mornings and evenings and warm to hot days.  Most people will want long pants and a sweatshirt or jacket for the mornings and for strolling around in the evenings.   If you are visiting in May, June or October then you should probably bring an extra layer or two, a warm hat and gloves.  It could be sunny and 70 degrees out but snow during these months is anything but uncommon.
If you are rafting, most outfitters will have the gear you need but for extra comfort, we recommend bringing a pair of wool socks and a fleece jacket to wear on the river.
Need to buy some extra layers or just want to shop? In Big Sky, Grizzly Outfitters will have everything you need and in West Yellowstone stop by Freeheel and Wheel.
Have questions?  Give Geyser Whitewater a call or email anytime, we are here to help.
