View from Gardner Lake Pullout, (Elevation 10,536′) Beartooth Loop, Beartooth Highway, Wyoming, USA

The Gardner Lake trailhead is one of the highest in the Beartooth Mountains, at 3215.64 Metres or 10,550 feet above sea level.

We had been staying at Nye exploring the Stillwater River Canyon before it was time to move on to our next destination which was to be Cody, the famous cowboy town in Wyoming.
To get to Cody we had to head from Nye to Redlodge then up the Beartooth Highway, variously stated, at over 10000 feet, to be one of the USA's most scenic high altitude drives. The road was indeed very scenic with lots of switchbacks and stark rolling tundra landscapes on top. Views across the tundra, down into the valleys and of various high altitude lakes were exceptional, although photos just don't seem to do them justice.
We drove on to the Top of the World Store then to the junction of the Beartooth and Chief Joseph Byways where we turned down the Chief Joseph Byway on an equally scenic road, with its own set of switchbacks, until we reached Cody.
After an interesting stay in Cody we drove back up the Chief Joseph Byway to the Beartooth Highway Junction and then proceeded to drive the short distance to Cooke City.
After a break in Cooke City we headed off toward Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park before finally reaching our destination in Gardiner on the Northern outskirts of Yellowstone.
