View from the Top of Lonesome Mountain.
Hello, my name's Bryan. I saw that there is some interest in the Beartooths within this community, so I figured on compiling all my trips from last summer into one post. I lived and worked on the Bighorn National Forest up at Porcupine RS last season, so on my weekends I would drive across the desert, the bighorn basin, in between the 2 mountain ranges to explore the hell out of the Beartooths. I took 6 separate backpacking trips over there from july to september. A very amazing place. Enjoy...

This was a really challenging hike. The boulders on top of the plateau are big, the landscape is enormous, and there are few trails to get to the cool places. I Love The Beartooth
