Glacier National Park - Montana

This morning, we drove over to the west entrance of Glacier National Park...about 40 miles from the RV Park. Along the way, we made a quick stop to find one geocache that was an easy find.

We stopped at the Visitor's Center and listened to a ranger discuss the sites to see along the Going to the Sun Road. This road transverses the park from west to east and is about 51 miles long. The ranger said it takes about two hours if you don't stop...we took about six hours.

We brought our GPS and information on seven virtual caches along the route. We stopped many times and took plenty of pictures. Too many to post here, so check out our picture site. The complete round-trip was 137 miles. We arrived back at the campsite after 7:00pm, famished! We didn't stop for lunch and forgot to bring snacks for the trip. Oh!, we found seven of the eight caches!
