BILLINGS, Montana (AP) - Yellowstone National Park will let in 720 snowmobiles a day - the same as the past three winters - while officials try to form a long-term access plan amid challenges from recreational users and conservationists. Park spokesman Al Nash said administrators decided to revert to the old temporary plan so they could dive immediately into developing a long-term solution. The decision marked the latest turn in a decades-long struggle between snowmobile advocates, who want more recreational access, and conservation groups that say too many of the machines degrade the park's natural beauty.
