The Beartooth Plateau offers some amazing alpine hikes. The Beartooth High Lakes Trail is just that. Just outside of Yellowstone National Park’s northeast entrance lies Cooke City and the Beartooth Plateau. Leave the crowds of Yellowstone and enjoy the solitude of the Beartooth Highway. The Beartooth Mountains rival the best hiking that Yellowstone has to offer. The Beartooth High Lakes Trail is tops in the area and rarely are hikers rewarded with nonstop views with so little effort. From the beginning of this trail at the foot of Island Lake stunning vistas stretch north across its crystal blue water to Lonesome Mountain, Castle Rock Mountain, Castle Mountain and Sky Pilot Mountain to the north. This hike offers a nice sampling of the Beartooth Mountains visual delights. For a quick hike to a beautiful mountain lake that’s near Cooke City, there’s no better place than Becker Lake. The hike to Becker Lake is a perfect hike for kids and older adults.
