Great Falls to Livingston

Is US 89 a good RV route from Great Falls to Livingston? I am actually going to Columbus, Mt. Google maps says take 87 to 191 to I-90. The difference time wise going US 89 is only 15 minutes but it seems like the US 89 route would be more scenic. If I go US 89 is there anything I need to be aware of?

89 is a very pretty drive. You'll have a 6-7% downhill for 3.5 miles on Kings Hill Pass south of Neihart which isn't a biggie. It's a good two-lane road.

Here's a YouTube on the drive but this is done with a motorcycle so it's going faster than you will!

Thanks for the Info. I always look for a video but could only find short ones. I am good with the going down the pass and will head that way later today.

Made the drive yesterday nice pleasant drive hardly any traffic. Only problem I had was south of White Sulfur Springs where 89 breaks off of 12, you come around a curve and the turn sign for Livingston is right there without a lot of time to slow down to make the turn I almost over shot it.
