Hellroaring Plateau and Beartooth Pass

7 mile climb on the bike up to Hellroaring Plateau at 7am and 22 degrees into the snow.  Amazing views, and surprisingly, no wind, just some bear tracks.  Descend, eat lunch, then take the family over the amazing Beartooth Pass to Cooke City.  I love this place.

Top of Hellroaring Plateau just under 10,000ft.  

In the foreground, the road I came up.  In the background, the paved Beartooth Highway.
