Skiing Yellowstone

Jim,
We found a great way to ski the park and get away from the snow
machines was to stay in the park at Old Faithful Snow Lodge. You can
catch a snow coach in, and then you can ski around to the geyser
basins, to Mystic Falls, Kepler Cascades and Lone Star geyser. You
can also catch a snow coach to the trail head for Fairy Falls (and
then ski back to the lodge along a power line if you want to avoid
the road) and you can catch a snow coach over to the Canyon area if
you'd like to ski that area. You can do the same basic thing by
staying in Gardiner or Mammoth (which has some advantage since you
can drive there, but the ski conditions are generally better in the
Old Faithful area), but its a long way from the north entrance to Old
Faithful in a snow coach. It is also a long way on skis from West
Yellowstone to Old Faithful and there is a lot of traffic, even in
the winter, along that road.
