 As License To Allow Ski Trip

Miriam Brooks, of Pocatello, Idaho, were the first travellers of the Yellow stone year, and they passed through the entrance at West Yellowstone after an unusual journey.
 A Journey of Adventure.
 Where the tourists of the Sunni er- time make the park in a brief scenic trip of a few hours from Salt Lake City these girls took four and g. days. They travelled first by private car. Then they rode with the gigantic TO- tary blows in the spectacular battle through huge drifts with the snow fighters who opened the Union Pacific Yellowstone Road after its winters disuse.
 And for the last lap. with the long battle through the accumulated win ter snow won, they clambered down from the controller cab of the TO- tary, donned skis and journeyed into the park to break the first trail of the year to see the wonderland in a white beauty that no traveller of the sum mer can even imagine.

West Yellowstone. Mont, April c. Are skis a vehicle?
 This was the question that stumped Rangers Lee Webb and Roy Frazier at the West Yellowstone entrance when the first tourists of the 1922 season applied for admittance into Yellowstone National Park.
 And if skis were vehicles and must carry licenses. just where. on each of the three pretty girl applicants, would a fellow paste the familiar qf- cenes sticker which regulations re- qutre be placed on the windshield?
 Obviously the situation demanded a compr omise. and so, when the first fair visitors of the gala golden anni- versary year of Yellowstone passed through the gateway of the park as forerunners of the thousands to fol- low, they were duly checked in and green stickers that said so were jauntily pasted squarely be- tween their shoulder blades.

changes are being made.
The sheriff, as custodian Of the
