One of the most beautiful roads in America must be the Beartooth Highway (U.S. 212 between Red Lodge, Montana and Yellowstone National Park). It winds up into the mountains with lots of hairpin turns and crosses over a 10,000 ft. pass. We later hiked and camped at Island Lake (9,500 ft.). It was spectacular but really cold.
This road is very popular with motorcyclists during the summer. They like to ride in big groups. At the overlook stop I overheard some of them talking about coming from the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota. It sounds awesome. Dad has no idea how close I came to hopping on the back of a Harley-Davidson and leaving him to find his own way home.
