This continues from the first part of Monday, June 3 drive on Chief Joseph Highway. We are now going on the Beartooth highway, which is even more AWESOME than Chief Joseph.

It's getting cold, probably in the low 50's or high 40's here. But we're determined to complete the drive.

As we get closer to Beartooth pass, we're reminded of how high we are:
This is "Top of the World" store and motel. They tell us the road just opened for the season the previous weekend, but snow is still possible.

We enter into freezing and snowing conditions. We are in the clouds and snow.
And still more snow and colder temps ahead:
Getting through the worst and back to "normal" will be in the next post.
