- 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.

I expect a polar bear plunge next time Matt! 🤣 That is a beautiful hike brother! God bless you and the family!
I was truly thinking about it all day until I saw the lake🥶
I like also this vide from you! Very cinematic and with high quality and Great nature! Perfect combination! I love your videos! Big Like 34
Thank you so much 😀
Awesome Trail! Absolutely beautiful place!! Big Like + full view Have a wonderful weekend!
Such a great area. Mr. Martini and I love going into that area. We don't live too far. I can't believe I have not come across your channel before. It rocks.
Thanks! I can only imagine what it would be like to live closer👍🏼. Someday maybe🤞🏼
It's been really nice during the pandemic. I'm so close to so many wide open spaces. And can get away from people
@@ColoradoMartini sounds like paradise to me😁... we’re working on convincing our girls that we should move out west😬
Phenomenal views!! Great hike and beautiful day. Great hike with the family - even getting wet and passed up by "an old man" as your daughter says. ♡
Wyoming is special 😁
Wow what a beautiful view love ❤️ nature God created fully watching your video and found what a beautiful place you shared us keep sharing. Stay connected
God is amazing that's for sure! 👍🏻i appreciate the kind comment😁
Great tour, so amazing place. Full watched and supported. Stay connected, my friend
Thanks 🙏🏼!
Such a great family hike. I can see why you are so proud of them. Awesome landscape you got to explore.
That hike had great payoffs for being fairly easy.
A wonderful episode Matt. Nobody wants to be wet and cold 😂 It's not only Paradise it is beautiful. 8:04 yes you did enjoy it because you will talk about it for years to come and you will treasure these times with your Mom and Dad.They will appreciate it one day Matt. Love your videos Matt, they are great buddy. Keep up the great work. P.s nice little bit of Drone Footage too. Awesome adventure. Have a great weekend.
Thanks for the great comment😁
Non-stop views! That water looks cold! Brr - lovely too see with snow 😊👍
Mountains seem like they should always have snow on them, something majestic about it👍🏼
Beautiful scenery! Fantastic love it!
This is amazing place. Scenery is unbelievable. I love it I wish I can visit one day
The Banff area of Canada is high on my list of places to explore! You got some great mountains north of our border that’s for sure😁👍🏼
@@TheMountainMatt wow good thing to know about the Banff area. See ya
OMG this is so ridiculous! Just the drive was awe inspiring. Good job getting the family across the water and I'm sure it was freezing cold. Pretty confident that would have been a "hard pass" for two of this CTW fam. Haha...that interview and the dejection of that "old man"...classic. But seriously such a cool hike with the snow and that drone footage...so good. I feel like the fam was featured mored in this one. Great stuff.
Thanks! Trying to incorporate the family as much as they can handle me😉😁
Hi friends. What a gorgeous hike. The drive as well. Unbelievable. Love that you take your little mountain goats along for the adventure. Very cool what they're getting to experience. Awesome!
Would you mind hopping over to our channel and making sure we're still friends there? We've lost some lately and want to make sure we're still friends with you.
We are lucky parents.... so far😳
Great content, good morning Saturday from Thailand.
Thanks 🙏🏼
Some great family time right there! I've always wanted to go to Wyoming.👍
Beartooths are only 13 hours from central MN... you’d love it!
Not fun when you get your feet wet. Good advice about the water shoes. Fantastic trail. Big thumbs up.
I’m a baby when it comes to postholing
That drone footage is amazing! What a beautiful view! It really is kind of unbelievable. So perfect it almost seems unreal! Such a wonderful place to hike! OH I hate wet feet too!! She's got some good advice about the water proof shoes! I'm sure that lake is gorgeous when not frozen, but there's something about the frozen that is just so amazing! I don't like to be cold so I'd like never do that cold weather hike, but if I did, I would have so many pictures! lol. After a couple beers lol.
Sometime the thought of nice dinner and tasty beer is the only thing that keeps ya going 😉There's something about hiking in the mountains when there is snow around, it just feels better 😁 and cold 🥶
You never fail to impress!❤️👍🥳
Thanks little lady!
Oh wow! America just has an endless amound of amazing national parks, hikes and trails!
We are dying to get across to America and really explore some of these amazing parks and mountains! We have subscribed and we are starting a bucketlist of all these amazing places! Great video, can't wait to see more!
Thanks guys! Australia has been my favorite country since my childhood for some reason😁... I think because of Crocodile Dundee😉. Love the name also👍🏼
such a great place,wonderful,thanks for sharing,I wish you all the best
Thanks 🙏🏼
Wow. I like it here 😍
I’d love to live in Wyoming, it is so rugged there
YOU CAN EASILY WALK UP THE LAKES, AT THE PASS, AT THE SWITCHBACKS, OR Scramble up the ridge it goes all the way out to Spirit. The gigantic ditch on the other side is the river/creek out of Red Lodge, go high or go home.
Hey guys, another awesome view. Crazy that there is snow already. We are still at times at mid or high 80s! Foliage is still all GREEN. Thanks for the share. LIKE # 19. 👍👍👍👍
I saw a couple glimpses of Zion NP in your intro. Cool video and pretty area. Looked a bit cold to be crossing those rivers that time of year. The drone shots were pretty neat. Take care out there. Getting wet can sneak up on you.
The Wife is actually heading back to Zion tomorrow, lucky!
Awesome video Matt!! Love me some Montana views. Fun fact: I lived year in NW Montana (Missoula) for a year after graduating college, one of the prettiest years of my life!
Emily and I are begging our teenage girls to move out there... impossible 😩
If in the meadows/woods in the bowl under the fire tower, you will see a bear. And they ain't park bears. Out of Cooke City East are access roads to the Tooth on that side. Go to the Pass or Fire Tower, pass for high stuff. ALSO, THE BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES FOR A PEAK WAS BARRONETTE PEAK IN JULY. And we have been up hundreds. Ice Box Canyon follow the ridge all the way up.
We got passed up by an old man, hahaha, loved it. Great video guys
I had to throw that in😁
Awesome adventure.
Thank you
*_A wonderful hike, the landscapes are super beautiful. The lake, embedded in a landscape like a picture book, I am thrilled. Thank you for that and best regards from Germany, Angela_*
amazing!👏😊✨good view！
Thank you 🙏🏼
wow! a Place like heaven, perfect weather to hike! amazing views everywhere, yeah the Becker Lake is the best!👍
This is an Easy one. Drive up to Pass Switchbacks. Park in the big parking lot on them, walk out to Spirit Mountain on the ridge, coming back drop down to lakes walk back easy. FOr the bear Maul Woods go to the Fire Tower walk down and into them, there are trails. First, go to the top and walk out to the high peak, not the fire tower. Then back down to car and enter woods of bear death.
Sahabat baru Hadir ❤️
Awesome video, man. Beautiful scenery. I need to know camera(s) and settings though. I’m struggling half the time with my white balance.
I appreciate that coming from you Jerry👍🏼... put all my cameras on 6000K during the day and forget it😁. Got my GH5 and two yummy lenses so that helps a ton!
Superbe 🤩 Thanks for that amazing video Matt. That's awesome
Thank you very much 😁
@@TheMountainMatt You deserve it my friend
@@Autourdumonde1 thanks man! I really appreciate that😁
@@TheMountainMatt we’ll stay tuned 😀
Awesome man! betcha that water was C O L D! what time of year was this hike? Early spring?
Thanks Jon! I think it was a day or two after Fathers Day. Big views for such an easy hike😁... minus the post holing😉
These lakes were virtually destroyed in the huge flood two years ago. I haven't been in the area since then, but word is Island, Becker, and Mystic lakes are pretty much gone.
Wow 😮! I could see how that could happen, it’s such a weird soggy area.
Hilarious episode, Matt! 😂😂😂 Fully watched as usual. 💪 Alison and I were cracking up. That old man beat you guys. 😁 The lakes were super nice. What month was this? We were actually planning a Wyoming and Idaho trip this summer. This looks like a good one. 💪 Your family seems to mirror ours in attitude and exhaustion after a good hike. 😀 Excellent job.
Thanks! Postholing all day was brutal. We hiked that in mid June but the Beartooth Plateau is so high up they have snow forever. You guys would love it! We stayed in Cooke City for 3 nights and Red Lodge for 3 nights and hiked in-between the two. We were in Idaho’s Sawtooths in August as well, definitely going back there! We’ve got cold weather and unseasonably snow already, going to be a long winter. Thanks for watching!
@@TheMountainMatt Awesome! Did you see that much snow in August in the Sawtooths? Snowy hiking in tennis shoes is a beat-down. 😂 You know we love the high alpine stuff too, but don't want to make it miserable for the kids. 😀
@@RoadtrippinwithTakacs August was great in the Sawtooths. There is a resort called Red Fish Lake Resort that is right on Red Fish Lake, but it’s busy. We stayed in Stanley, which is a great small town 5 mins away. Only snow we saw at that time was way up. The weather is perfect in August 40s at night and 80s during the day. Let me know if I can answer any more questions for ya! Definitely heading back there.
the first clip is cooke city montana! i’ve been there it’s a great little town
We loved it there😁👍🏼 so close to so much! Glad I could take you back there for a moment 😁
@@TheMountainMatt Did you go to the Malaysian resturant there?
@@bobbobby2863 it was beginning of Covid so most everything was closed. Nobody was hiking so that was good😁
I want to see a polar plunge Matt lol 😂 What a beautiful hike though! Wishing you and your family all the best during this pandemic! Feel free to check out our travel adventures if your interested! 🙂
I’ve got multiple plunge requests over the past few days so mark my word, eventually I will jump into an alpine lake 🥶💪🏼. I do have to inform you that it won’t be until next year though😂🤣. I will pop over 👍🏼
I agree with your daughter, it looked perfect. Terrific hike and beautiful weather, I take it this was a while ago. I guess none of them killed you after this hike, unless your wife is posting it posthumously. Lol.
😂🤣... we do all our hiking trips spring thru fall then I edit during MNs deep freeze. Thanks for watching W MadMan! Best comment in a long time👍🏼
Hey Matt, around what month was this in?
Hi Andrew! That was the 2nd or 3rd week in June a few years ago.
KEY WORD EASY. FIRE TOWER EASIER. 😁
Nice good beautiful place. Thank you for watching the video.TH-cam friend. Come and see my dog.Have a good day.💓💓👍
