The 26 mile East Rosebud Trail in the Gallatin and Custer National Forests of the Beartooth Mountains is certainly one of the most spectacular in the northern Rockies. This hike through the heart of the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness area has everything. High moutain peaks (12000+ ft) including views of Granite Peak, Montana's highest, considerable above treeline hiking (real Alpine tundra), dark forests, numerous waterfalls, too many lakes to mention, great fishing and a descent through a canyon that rivals Yosemite's walls. It's good trail all the way and you are likely to see a variety of wildlife including black bear, elk, big horn sheep and mountain goats not to mention the assorted rodents from pikas to marmots.
