It is worth going if you are looking for some of the most spectacular scenery in the world as well as some of the most fun riding you could possibly ask for. It is not for the faint of heart, so if you dont like technical riding at its best, stay home.

We rode about 15 passes on this last trip and it is not only one of the highest it is one of the longest. We came out of Red Lodge and it took us a couple of hours with stops to reach the summit. The ride into Wyoming was just as amazing. Then the Cheif Josheph is two for the price of one.

Beartooth is a no brainer. You have to experience this road. You also need to experience Yellowstone as well. That whole area will change your life!

The view from the top.... 10,947 ft.



On the way up...



and Yellowstone

Here's some more pics to whet your appetite. Plus, there is another great ride out of Red Lodge by taking 78 north to Columbus (stop at the Grizzly Bar in Roscoe on the way for sure) and turn a hard right just before the bridge crossing the Yellowstone River and ride that rode back to Joliet & then back to Red Lodge.
