This live camera looks out over West Yellowstone, the Montana gateway town to Yellowstone National Park. It is useful for checking how the town looks right now before a drive into the park, especially in winter when road conditions change quickly. The page also shows local time and the weather forecast for the area.
A town at the park's edge
West Yellowstone sits at about 2,030 metres in the Madison River valley, close to the western entrance of Yellowstone National Park. It is best known as a base for visitors heading into the park, with its streets built around tourism, outdoor gear and wildlife trips. The surrounding country is forested mountain terrain with wide open meadows, and the high-elevation air can be sharp even on sunny days.
What to watch and when
The view shows the town and its main street rather than the park itself, so details depend on the weather and light. Clear mornings are good for judging snow cover and traffic, while late afternoon often brings long shadows over the hills. In winter, the camera can help you see whether roads look clear or whether snow is building up, which is useful for planning the day.
Climate and getting around
Winters are long and cold, with heavy snow, and summers are short, mild and busy with visitors. The best time to come is generally late spring to early autumn, when most park roads are open. Nearby cameras on this site cover other points in town, including the Grizzly Building, the Clubhouse Inn and the park's west gate hotel, so you can compare views around the area.
