A new plan allowing fewer snowmobiles into Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks has been released by the National Park Service which would cut by nearly 40 percent the number of loud, polluting snowmobiles allowed into the parks each day. The previous plan called for allowing up to 540 snowmobiles a day, but that plan was struck down by a judge in September.

If you want peace and tranquility in the park then go visit it in the winter as it is much quieter than the summer and the geysers even emit far more pollutants than the snowmobiles do.
