Yellowstone National Park's south loop has reopened in a limited capacity, a little more than a week after historic rainfall and flooding shuttered all the park's entrances
travel through the south loop -- accessed through the East, West and South entrances of the park -- based on an alternating license plate system, with some exceptions, the National Park ServiceThat system means vehicles with license plates ending in an odd number will be able to enter the park on odd days of the month, while even numbers will be granted access on even days of the month, according to the service.
Fewer than 5,000 vehicles entered the south loop Wednesday -- a vast difference from the usual 10,000 or more cars that enter, the park service said.
