Beartooth Scenic Byway





Called America's most beautiful road and with 20 peaks reaching over 12,000 feet in elevation including Granite Peak at 12,799 feet.  Beartooth Scenic Byway is Montana's highest paved primary road.  Opened in 1936, Beartooth Scenic Byway roughly follows the old Sheridan Trail, laid out in 1882 by Yellowstone protectionist Gen. Phil Sheridan.  The byway has spectacular views which in my opinion competes with Yellowstone National Park.
