After many years of hearing about The Going to the Sun Road we finally made it to Glacier N.P. The scenery is awesome and is one of the highest points in the northern Rockies.
If you don’t like heights it could get a little hairy at some of the spots along the road and road construction can slow down the trip for a couple of hours, but we were in no hurry.
The scenery more than makes up for the delays.
The Lake McDonald Lodge is a wonderful old hunting lodge, with all the old lodgepole pine timbers and huge fireplace.
The old Jammers were fun to see, in fact we met a gentleman looking over one of the vehicles and he was reliving the days when he drove them for the park back in 1956 when he was 20yrs. old! He had some great stories to tell about those days.
The bighorn sheep were out when we came back over the mountains which was a treat to get to see them that close.
