Have you ever wondered what it would be like to drive Going To The Sun road, WITHOUT TRAFFIC? I can count on both hands how many times I have driven the road, and it has always been clogged with traffic. Not to mention the traffic jams that are caused by the mountain goats.
Glacier Park just recently announced a way to limit the amount of traffic on the scenic highway. Vehicles will now need reservations to drive the Going to the Sun Road.
Day-use visitors who arrive by private vehicle or motorcycle must have an Entry Reservation Ticket and a current park pass when entering the park through the West and St. Mary Entrances, or via the Camas Road, between 6 am and 5 pm from May 28 to September 6, 2021. Please be prepared to show your reservation confirmation and photo ID at park entrance stations upon arrival.

It is gearing up to be a wild summer. We can already tell that our typical tourist season in Montana is going to be blown away by a record number of visitors. Just recently, I called the Flathead National Forest Ranger Station, to do some research on state camp sites around Flathead Lake. I was blown away when I heard that most of the campsites around Flathead Lake are reservation only. Most of these reservations are snatched up early in the year, by people preparing vacations to the lake. But what blew my mind was when the park ranger told me that only 2% of the state parks around the lake had vacancies from May15th through Labor Day. That is CRAZY!
