Day 4 – the real fun starts

Fun not from the beginning to be clear. Gusty and cold (!) wind on the way to Cody weren’t that pleasant. Interesting always leaning sideward to drive straight and even better being straight in a left curve.

After refuelling found the way to the entrance of Chief Joseph Scenic Byway

Winding up – up to the first top

For Beartooth Pass (US Route 212) the road is getting worse for the first miles. With an altitude of 10,947 ft (3,336 m) it is remarkable up there. Yeah, quite cold also. Nevertheless the curves and turns are wide and the speed limit even doesn’t allow real floating and leaning in the turns – if you respect it.

To be honest – both passes were beautiful – especially the view you have from even every part of the road – … but definitely not difficult. OK – I compare to the Alps … e.g. Passo die Stelvio. Maybe I am not the one to judge.

Landing in Billings MT concludes the day with some local singer songwriters live.
