US 89 outside of Gardiner, Montana, had a posted speed limit of 70 mph and runs all the way north to Livingston, Montana. It was the first time in two days that I had driven over 20 miles per hour. The Yellowstone River runs along US 89 and is made accessible to rafters, kayakers and fishermen at the many named fishing access points. Having these points named makes it very easy to remember a great spot to access the river. There were many people rafting and floating the Yellowstone River along US 89.
One of the best places for launching a kayak seemed to be the "Point of Rocks" fishing access point. The current was not too strong so I was able to return to the spot from which I launched. There are kayaking outfits that run river tours along the Yellowstone. They will drop you off and pick you up at designated areas if you wish to have a longer paddle. This was a very nice kayaking spot.
