In using MICHELIN tires, there has been a dramatic reduction (estimated at 60 percent) in tires that need to be "chained- up" in winter, saving tire wear, labor, and fl eet down-time. In addition to providing tires, Michelin, which has a 113-year history of creating maps and travel guides, publishes "The Yellowstone Park Foundation's Offi cial Guide to Yellowstone National Park." This 106-page book represents one of the most in-depth guides to the park that includes tours, itineraries, insider tips from park experts and reliable recommendations for sightseeing. Proceeds from the sale of the book go to the Yellowstone Park Foundation. It is sold at Yellowstone and is also available on Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble. com.
