2007 Rally of the 406 Crew: Beartooth Pass: June 2007
This Northeast Entrance to Yellowstone National Park is the least traveled, bringing just a few hundred cars over every year. The Beartooth Highway is only opened 4.5 months of the year, from the end of May until mid-October.
Beartooth Pass
© Vertical Media The first 15 miles out of Red Lodge takes you from the canyon floor and climbs almost 4,000 feet in elevation, taking you past Precambrian rock slides and red and yellow rock outcroppings. Expect hairpin curves, U-curves, and sinuous S-curves in the road as you climb to the canyon rim past forests, rugged cliffs, pristine lakes, mountain peaks, alpine tundra, and snow banks even in August. At 45 miles in length, you will cross the highest point in the Beartooth Highway at 10,974. Here, you leave Montana and enter Wyoming. The descent takes you along switchbacks which meander through rolling hills saturated with lakes, forests, and wildlife.
Date: June 16th-17th 2007.
Meeting Place: Billings Montana- National Golf. 529 24th St W @ 9 am.
Destination: Yet unknown via beartooth pass.

well that was quick on ups's part. i was talking to people about the beartooth pass and hotels in west yellowstone, but in livingston they have chico hot springs, and you can rent the 17 person cabin if you let them know ahead of time, figured that be cheaper than western yellowstone hotel room sounds like $120 a night in western yellowstone or something like that, just an idea whats everyone think??

put me down for 2 beds.
although...do you think its a good idea to do it during the work week? That might decrease the number of people coming.
