We were there in 2001, but had to pass by to get to Canada.  The Going-To-The-Sun Road is so spectacular, we wanted to drive it again.  Other pictures of mostly the west side are on the website from last year.  The "Jammers" were being repaired last year.  They are beautiful machines.  Glacier was a well kept secret, but the rich people exploding the Kalispell-Whitefish area are putting too much of a load on it.  Why don't you stay out in "tinsel town", which you have wrecked already?

Glacier Motor Inn.

Spartan, but secluded on east side. Not many tourists here.

Jammer.

Restored Glacier touring cars from long ago. Called "Jammers" because of the gear shift procedure.

East approach to pass.

Going To The Sun Road, not speedy, wonderful on a motorcycle.

Visitor Center at Pass.

On the continental divide. There is no parking about 2 hrs. either side of noon, due to congestion. Come early or late.

Garden Wall.

Glaciated continental divide, facing southwest. Picture from above the visitor center. A trail and the road runs down along it.

Going To The Sun Mtn.

From the visitor center looking N.E. It was our anniversary that day.

McDonald Lodge.

Lobby of the old hotel on the west end of Glacier road.

Back of McDonald Lodge.

The McDonald Lake is behind you. You can take a boat ride on it.
