i had a similar experience in Yellowstone. fortunately, i was prepared for it...
but, in any case, you could always catch a ride over the Yellowstone, or Glacier (if you are going that way).
In '82, i was on foot, and even though there was plenty of snow and cold in Yellowstone and at the top of Togwotee Pass, for the rest of my travel through Wyoming and Colorado, it was glorious up until Thanksgiving.
