The north side of Beartooth Pass offers one of Montana’s most challenging and scenic climbs, leading into the rugged Beartooth Mountains near the Wyoming border. Starting with a gradual incline, the road gradually steepens as it winds south, with breathtaking views of the valley and multiple switchbacks, some with exposed sections. By mile 22, the climb takes you above the treeline into stunning alpine terrain, crossing into Wyoming before a brief descent and a final push to the summit at 10,947 feet.
