Replying to Beartooth pass this summer

Alright I searched and people said they wouldn't have the lifts open this year, have camps, or a terrain park cause of low snow levels.  I will be in the area around july 4th.  I want to ski so bad.  So if the ski area isn't operating, will there still be enough snow to ski.  Is there usually snow right next to the road that I can hike and build a booter or hit a cliff or something?  I dont have a problem hiking, but will I have to hike miles just to get to snow?  

If beartooth won't work, are there any other places around the yellowstone area that I can hit?  I heard someone mention Logan's pass or something like that.  What about teton pass(which would be ideal for me but i doubt it would work since i haven't heard anything about it)?  or anything in the tetons?

Im pretty much desparate to go skiing and I need to know if I should go ahead and bring my skis out with me when I make a road trip with my family to see my sister out there and do tourist stuff in yellowstone and the tetons.
