BILLINGS, Mont. Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks have resumed large group tours with safety measures intended to limit the spread of COVID-19, including wearing masks and being tested with 72 hours before the trip or showing proof of vaccination.
American Bus Association President Pete Pantuso called it a “reasonable” approach, citing increased demand and interest from people to visit, The Billings Gazette reported. However, he said he doesn’t expect charter and bus operations to see a lot of traffic until later in the summer and fall.

Officials at Yellowstone National Park stopped all bus traffic in the park last year in response to the coronavirus pandemic, in addition to delaying park openings, reducing park staff and enhancing cleaning measures at public facilities.
