Beartooth Highway Revisited

A winding mountain road snakes its way through a rugged landscape, flanked by green coniferous trees. High above, the road carves a path around steep slopes, offering a view of the valley below. The Beartooth Highway is an All-American Road in the western United States on a section of U.S. Route 212 in Montana and Wyoming between Red Lodge and the Northeast entrance of Yellowstone National Park. It crests at Beartooth Pass in Wyoming at 10,947 feet (3,337 m) above sea level, and was called "the most beautiful drive in America," by late CBS News correspondent Charles Kuralt.[2] Because of heavy snowfall at the top, the pass is usually open for about four or five months per year, from mid-May to mid-October, weather conditions permitting.
