JUN 25, 2012

Today we left the campground and went to the Glacier National Park Visitor Center in St. Mary, Mt. to get info on the park. Our campground is right outside the visitor center.  We toured the park driving on "Going To The Sun Road" which is the main road in the park.

 The park has been just recently open because they have to clear all the snow off the road from this past winter.  The park is beautiful beyond words or pictures can describe.  It takes about 8 plus hours to do the park and get back to the starting point, making many stops along the way.   It is a great time to be here because of the melting snow. There must be hundreds of water falls throughout the park. The park road is about 55 mile long from the East Visitor Center to the West Visitor Center then another 60 mile along the southern part of the park making a loop back to the East Visitor Center.
