Beartooth was going to open on May 28th initially, but there is so much snow on Beartooth Pass that the Montana Department of Transportation wasn’t able to get the road open on time.
The Beartooth highway is completely open as of yesterday according to MDT:
“The Beartooth Highway is completely open for the season! As with all seasonal roads, you should check the MDT Travel Info map for conditions, closures, and incidents before traveling. Weather can be unpredictable, soย #KnowBeforeYouGo. Safe travels!” – MDT, yesterday
We’re not sure why Beartooth Basin wasn’t able to open today, but we’re hoping they can get open next week.
There will also be aย ย FWT Qualifier event ever this summer at Beartooth Basin on June 14-17th, 2018.ย It’s a 2-star event.
Hey SnowBrains, this isn’t the first FWQ event at Beartooth, it’s been running for several seasons now!
Oh damn, my bad! I’ll fix that now.
