  • 1992. The Beartooth Highway runs 69-miles, from the Red Lodge to Cooke City, Montana and then to the Northeast entrance to Yellowstone National Park. It's a road so spectacular the CBS's Charles Kuralt has called it America's "most beautiful roadway". The video illustrates the highway's use by the traveler, exploring recreational opportunities along the way, as well as providing glimpses of the vast and varied scenery.

    I produced this video in the 1990's and updated it in 2004. I am happy to see that it is still working. Even after many trips, the highway always reveals something new. Now I get to show it to my grandchildren.

    I drove the Beartooth Highway in 1978 with my bride to be. I still often reflect of its awesome beauty and the wonderful time we had there. It is, without a doubt, the most beautiful example of nature I have ever seen. We will return there.

    Have made this trip twice. In June of 1978 with my folks when I was 15 and then again in July of 2014 with my wife. The words breathtaking do not do this drive justice. I would encourage everyone to take it in at least once in their lifetime.

    I was on Beartooth Highway on 8 6 15 traveling from Billings to Cooke City. As long as I have lived in Montana ( 60 years ) Im still amazed and appreciative of the beauty. We passed by a grizzly on the way and I got pictures of him. Then a couple hours later we came back the same way and Ill be danged if he was not still there. If you have not driven here, you seriously should consider it.

    I try to drive it every summer. Sometimes its still closed in June and start of July. Its a totally amazing drive... spectacular!!
    If you drive it, heed the speed limits....

    just finished the same trip on August 30, 2015. What a ride! Too bad we saw no grizzlies but were surprised to still see ice on the mountain top at the end of August. It was the highlight of a 4000 mile trip.

    Drove this road from Yellowstone to Red Lodge and beyond June of 2017. Incredible. My Vette hugged those switchbacks without skipping a beat. Honestly, I have not had this much fun driving in over 30 years. Thought I had it all on my GoPro only to find it had shut off. Did the whole pass (60+ miles) in under an hour. Got some snaps along the way but have to go back to stop and smell the roses.... get more photos. I was so impressed I am thinking of moving out there. Absolutely gorgeous.

    This is probably my favorite place in the world. Grew up in Cody and we used to go camping near the plateau every summer. We even spent a week in the sunlight basin on the way to there for school one year.

    Stumbled thru this highway on the way back from YellowStone to Minneapolis on 4th July this year. The views are amazing, indeed it surpasses everything. The Beauty of YellowStone National Park is nothing compared to the beauty of this scenic drive. However the drive was very scary

    They just repaved this road as of August last year (2017) Nice and thick. While it might be great fun again for motorcycles, while half the pavement was 10" lower and grooved with one lane still oozing oil making the surface awful for traction, it was not for the feint of heart.

    We are going to spend several days, maybe a week, boondocking in our fifth wheel somewhere along the Beartooth Highway in July of 2017. We are 71 and 75 respectively but love hiking up to several miles depending on elevation gain. Any thoughts or warnings on this plan would be appreciated.
