As spring unfolds, and warmer weather visits the Pacific Northwest (also the rains), memories of working in Montana revisit.  Especially memories of Glacier National Park – now there’s an office with a view! I see that there’s a Montana Truck Camper Rally in late June over at Glacier … details here at rv.net

When you go, be sure you’ve got the “America the Beautiful” national park and rec pass … and we recommend Avalanche Creek campground.  It’s about as far as you want to drive a truck camper in the park … you can take the buses from there to anywhere you want to go (they’re free).  Pack water!

Cell reception is sketchy … you may have to drive down to Apgar Visitor Center (also camping, close to the West entrance).  Don’t attempt the TC on the Going-To-The-Sun-Road – take the bus!  Head on out to St. Mary’s Visitor Center on the eastern side … everything here is amazing.

Lots of folks like the “Red Bus” Tour … the Montana TC Rally actually reserved a couple of these for touring.  Looks like a hoot.  Saw the same kind of buses over in Yellowstone – except they were yellow, of course.

When ya need connections, it’s off to the parking lots …
