This week in Yellowstone National Park, from August 6th to August 12th, 2026, I talk about how to maximize wildlife watching during this slow season for animals, discuss wildfire smoke impacting the park, and tell you about a boat on Grand Prismatic Hot Springs. I will also give you the complete weather forecast, a cool trail to hike, the snowpack update, the wildlife report, and everything else you need to have an incredible time, “This Week in Yellowstone.”
