Summary

Description
English: Late spring snow graced the tallest peaks of the mountains in Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana in the last week of June 2017. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard NASA’s Terra satellite acquired this true-color image on June 24. The image is centered in the Rocky Mountains, close to the spot where Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana share boundaries. The most famous feature in this area is Yellowstone National Park, which lies 96% in Wyoming (southeast section of the image), 3% in Montana (northeast) and 1% in Idaho. While the average high temperature in June, according to the National Park Service, is 70⁰ F (21⁰ C), because much of the park lies at over 6,000 ft. elevation, snow can fall any time of the year.
