My van broke down at Ice Lake, between Canyon Junction and West Yellowstone, MT. I was able to…read morepull-off the road, into the Ice Lake parking area. So, I was not blocking traffic or causing any difficulty for the tow truck. As an AAA Member, I called AAA (after I managed to get my hands on a cell phone that worked, another story). AAA is not allowed to enter the park to service their members. Hmmmmm, why not? So, the AAA dispatcher transferred the call over to YPSS, Inc. at Canyon Junction, 8 miles away. They sent-out a tow truck, a flatbed. Did the tow truck arrive promptly? Yes. Was it a state-of-the-art flatbed? Yes. Was the driver, Dave, courteous, efficient? Yes. Did Dave, know what he was doing? Yes. Were the towing charges reasonable? ABSOLUTELY NOT! It is exactly 31 miles from Ice Lake to the mechanic (Jake's) where the van was dropped-off in West Yellowstone, MT. The towing charges were $565.65! That is $18.25 PER MILE!!! As a retired "business guy," I think it is wonderful that independent businesses, corporations (large & small), are allowed to do business in our National Parks ... vendors of all stripes ... restaurants, stores, etc. That said, these exclusive agreements are NOT a license to steal from visitors to our National Parks. [UPDATE, 6 MAY '18] I just had a fellow, Derek, a local to this area, pushing-back rather vigorously on the review, above, which I have toned-down a wee bit. (I'm still not clear on Derek's relationship to this business, obviously a friendly one.) Derek was going out of his way to explain how difficult it is for a "provider" to operate in a National Park. Based upon Derek's comments, it certainly sounds difficult, with loads of overhead and unusually high expenses, including a cut taken out of the business profits by the National Park Service. Okay, fine. It is also noteworthy to know that an outfit like this one, YPSS, has no competition in the Park. So, it is difficult for a vendor / provider to operate in Yellowstone. Okay, fine. I still say that $18.25 per mile is exorbitant and I'd like to know how much of that $18.25 per mile is PURE PROFIT for the "provider".

By the entrance there was a flashing sign Bison on road and we saw so many the first day- even close enough like 10 feet away to take photos. 3. The snow on the mountains, boulders and trees was jaw dropping beautiful. 4. It was cold enough to see icicles and bundle up but we didn't need to use our snow boots or use chains on our tires. 5. Luckily at least the Mammoth Springs General Store was open so we could enjoy the huckleberry ice cream sandwiches two days in a row. 6. Old Faithful Geyser was pretty close to the estimated time to blow though the wind made it spout to the left vs straight upwards. Not so good: 1. Many roads were closed & places not open til 4/29- we came a few days too early. 2. We really wanted to see baby bears as it was spring but saw no bears at all. 4. Only once when hubs needed to use a restroom we had difficulty finding one close by that was open.

I wish I would have read the review from James D. because we experienced who I'm assuming is the…read moresame man he mentioned (tall, burly white man with graying hair and a short graying beard). My dad, 71, went in before I did and bought some waters. I came in and that man was standing near my dad on the same side of the counter and a nice lady was ringing up my dad. I went to look for other things and could hear the man yammering on about something, obviously intoxicated, but harmless BS. Then I went to the front to pay for my items and that guy and another man were still kind of talking to my dad. My dad dropped something out of his pocket on the way to the door and the man asked if he wanted a bag and my dad said no, but then the guy started saying condescendingly, "Do you need help out to your car," all loudly, making fun of him. Then my dad just laughed and walked out the door and that man turned around and started hysterically laughing and the other guy did, too, like they were proud of themselves for making fun of a paying customer? Then I paid and was leaving and said it was nice they made fun of paying customers and may have called him an a**hole under my breath. We were filling up the car with gas (although we shouldn't have given them anymore of our money) when the lady came out and said my card didn't go through. I went back in and that man was hovering near me, saying they were about to call the authorities (let's say he was joking; after all, I'm "lucky enough" to be white so I guess I missed his racist streak). The lady ran my card again and the man was saying how she shouldn't let anyone go until the register drawer opens, adding, "not saying they aren't good people." What made it all really uncomfortable was that the guy was obviously loaded on either booze or something else. The other guy had more sense and went around and pushed a button the lady hadn't so my purchase went through. I thanked her, and as I was leaving, I said "Feel free to talk about me when I leave," but she was the only one who heard and laughed nervously. For a town of a little over 200 people, you'd think business owners (like that guy, I'm assuming) would have the sense to be nice to people supporting their businesses. Another guy at a bait and tackle place on Hwy 20 asked my dad where he was from because he had shorts on and it is cold. When my dad said California, he got really smart mouthed and was a d*ck. Again, funny that a guy who had NO customers in his shop and six employees would think it was necessary to comment on something like that. Luckily the three younger boys working there were really sweet and friendly. I thought small towns were supposed to be filled with nice people, but apparently some owners in Island Park don't care if their businesses stay afloat.
