Traveler Experiences
Beartooth Highway

Had a great ride except for the early snow this year. Each year I fly into Idaho Falls and rent a bike from the Harley dealer there, stay at a hotel almost in their parking lot, then...

My son and I exited the northeast entrance of Yellowstone on a ten day Colorado, Wyoming, and South Dakota adventure. We were disappointed to see that the famous Beartooth Highway was...

Approximately 10+ miles of this roadway is currently under construction. The last 5 miles up and then the first 5 miles down (the entire summit) is loosely packed gravel. You have a...

While motorcycling over the Beartooth, I punched two holes in the sidewall of my motorcycle's rear tire. It went down right at the Top of the World store. Lucky for me another rider...

This is one of the most beautiful places in the world that you can drive to. Last summer we camped for five days at one of the gorgeous National Forest campgrounds south of Red Lodge and drove up the switchbacks nearly every day to hike and hang out above treeline. Gorgeous!

Charles Kuralt had it right when he said this is one of the most spectacular drives in the country. Heading out of Red Lodge, Montana it's hard to tell what you're in for, but WOW! -...

What a beautiful stretch of road! We did not know we were going to get such a treat on our drive from Billings to Silver Gate. What a truly gorgeous world we live in.

By far the BEST biking road I have ever been on!!!

14 Mini Coopers, owners and lovers all came together for a fun-filled day of Beartooth Highway Motoring! Knowing how well our cars handle curves and corners we ventured out to test the curves for ourselves. We (everyone and every car) had a blast and are looking forward to more adventures soon! :)

I have heard for years that this is the most beautiful Byway in America. I am convinced. It was a stunning experience.

During my childhood my family traveled over many Colorado mountain passes as we went camping. Dad tried to pull a camper with a V-6 station wagon and we spent many an hour pulled...

It was an extreme white knuckle event, but one that I will cherish forever. My wife & I were heading to Jackson Hole, WY from Billings, MT because we wanted to go through...

I had visited this byway in 2003 and I did a summer geology field camp outside of Red Lodge in '06. What a beautiful place to see and spend time in. I could never get tired of...

Wife freaked out! Didnt know it was there! Coming out of Yellowstone in beat-up jeep, heading to florida, we got surprised by the 70 mph no guardrail hairpin turns, and the clouds...

We rode our motorcycles (seven of us on seven Harleys) over Beartooth Hwy in the summer of 2006. What an experience! The night before we stayed in Hardin, MT and our next stop was to...

We travelled through the Beartooth Pass en route from Idaho Falls to the Little Bighorn Battlefield site. The weather during the morning while we travelled through North Yellowstone...

After seeing Yellowstone National Park, it's hard to believe that anything else could be as spectacular. Traveling the Beartooth Highway over Beartooth Pass changed our minds. PT...

My husband and I traveled the Beartooth Highway as part of a 17-day adventure across the United States on a Harley. There are few words to describe the experience and beauty that is...

Greetings from Scotland!

My husband and I first did the Beartooth Pass two years ago (at about the same time of year) but due to a major landslide we were unable to travel right...

A wonderful drive up through the Beartooth pass with many photo opportunities all the way to Cooke City. Followed by a drive down the scenic Chief Joseph Highway to Cody. A great alternative for those who don't have the time to visit Yellowstone. Roads in excellent condition, and many beautiful photo opportunities!

The Beartooth Highway was reminiscent of the Troll highway in Norway we visited last summer, but higher and better because as my 16 year old said, "It's in the USA!"
White knuckle...

We traveled to the Beartooth and the Chief Joseph Hwy with 4 other couples on a 4000-mile motorcycle trip. The Beartooth Highway was one of the many highlights of our trip, and we...

The Beartooth Highway is about the most beautiful drive in North America. It is a real find. The drive is one continous gorgeous scene after another without a break. In terms of...

I can't describe the view while traveling the Beartooth Hwy. It's unbelievable how far the eye can see when you get to the top. You are literally on top of the world. We are going back in June of this year and I cannot wait. It's better than Disney World!

Our experience on the Beartooth Highway was amazing. Myself, my husband and 2 boys were traveling throughout the Midwest. We had spent time in Yellowstone, but it was overcrowded and...

The climb to the top via the Beartooth Highway is not for the faint of heart; the hairpins are indeed hairy. It was, however, worth every second of the fear I experienced on the way...

Starting out from Cooke City before daylight, we enjoyed the Beartooth Highway as twilight slowly revealed shapes and colors of the ranchlands along the way and the mountains above...

We followed the AAA-recommended 'shortest route' to Minnesota through Yellowstone via Hwy 212. That was all we knew about it. As we climbed steadily higher we noticed tall sticks...

Travelling from Dickinson, ND, to Yellowstone National Park, we wanted to enter Yellowstone Park via its northeast gateway. That meant following US Highway 212 (the Beartooth Highway)...

One of our all time favorite camping experiences was at Island Lake campground on the Beartooth Highway. A wonderful (easy) trail goes past several, small chain lakes to a waterfall. We suggest this scenic byway to everyone we know traveling close to it.
