Day 4: Beartooth Highway

Hello!

I went on the Beartooth Highway, a highway that goes from Montana into Wyoming. It is honestly the most spectacular 11 hour road trip I have been on. I am writing this quite late, with much to do, so I don't have time to write much. However, I have many videos and pictures to show you all. I will present this post as kind of like a timeline.

First, we went to the small town of Red Lodge. All the way there, it's just road and beautiful views.

Then, we got on the Beartooth Highway. It was absolutely spectacular. I kept talking about bushwagoning the mountains. Bushwagoning is when you go off the trail and make your own trail to a destination, usually due to lack of a trail. Some people say it's totally crazy to bushwagon these mountains, some give it a shot. We stopped and did a short bushwagoning trail, about forty minutes there and back for me.

We stopped in Cooke City for a bathroom break, then went to Yellowstone National Park. It was pretty nice, but compared to other landscapes I've seen on the trip, it wasn't my favourite. This is probably due to the fact that we were driving through woods for a chunk of the time. However, we did see many bison and a beaver. The bison were not afraid to walk up close to cars or in front of them.

 

 

 















Finally, we got to Jardine, where my aunt's daughter (cousin-ish) lives. In the morning, I will have more pictures of Jardine. As I'm writing this, I'm listening to my aunt and cousin playing "This Land is Your Land". Never has that song felt so true.

By the way, tomorrow is the surprise.

Also, I would like to say that I haven't been replying to comments as often due to lack of time. I also owe thanks to you all for reading this blog, and if you have anyone who you think would enjoy this blog, please do spread the word. Thank you.


See you all later,
Ben
