Bennett and I travel to Montana to climb Granite Peak, the tallest mountain in Montana. At 12,807 feet above sea level, Granite Peak isn't the tallest peak in the United States, but don't let that fool you. This was a very difficult journey which involved several days of bushwhacking, boulder hopping, class 3 and 4 scrambling, and even some snow travel. We did this as a 3 day, 2 night journey. We started at the Mystic Lake Trailhead, hiked up to Huckleberry Creek, climbed up the creek to Princess Lake and camped there on day one. On day two, we climbed to the top of Granite Peak via Avalanche Lake and returned to camp taking the same route. On the third day, we packed our bags, caught a few Cutthroat Trout on Princess Lake, and hiked out.

Granite Peak is located in the Beartooth Mountain Range. You can access it via Cooke City or Red Lodge, depending on which route you take. This area provided some of the most impressive scenery I've seen so far and would love to return and explore some more.

I am on a journey to climb all of the 50 US state high points. This was number 13 for me. If you enjoyed this video, consider subscribing so you can follow along as I make my way to the top of the tallest point in each of the 50 US states.
