Leaving Friday for 8 days in Glacier NP. Two days up, six days in the park and 2 days back. Driving and taking my 18 yo daughter and two of her friends, before she leaves for college.
I have camp ground reserved outside of West Glacier (I tried east side but everything booked up 180 days out to the minute...) Have hikes planned, some white water rafting. Got the truck packed. Curious if anyone has any recent info or tips. Fires, bears, mosquitos? I know they recently shut down all wood camp fires, so I'm taking a propane fire pit, grill and stove. Not too worried about temps as I don't anticipate it colder than 45-50 at night. Gonna try and snag a vehicle pass, but already planning to be inside park before 0600 every day to avoid parking hassles at trail heads.
