I’d like to drive in from the east and camp then take our tow car and venture out every day for 3-4 days(?) We aren’t hikers. Then I’d like to break camp and head west, but since we have a 32 foot RV and tow a car I know we have to take a different road toward the west. I’d like to end up in the west part of the park for a few days also. We aren’t going to the Canadien park and don’t have a time schedule at all so what I need to know is where to make reservations for a full hook up (if possible) park in each of the areas. Could you give me the names of the parks that would make the most sense for our route please? I have until tomorrow, I believe, when some of the reservations open up. Thanks so much in advance.

Highway 2 takes you to West Glacier.Gary

Does that Route avoid the Sun Road? Our rig is too long.

I see that route goes outside the road we can’t drive on so that’s good, thanks. How long is the drive from Two Medicines to Apgar Campgrounds?

Yes, US 2 skirts the southern edge of Glacier.

Don't ask how I know. The Lost Week in Glacier!!!! There are a number of dry boondocking camp sites near the summit of Highway 2 also one commercial CG 4(?) miles west of the summit. We used it as a dump station. $5 -$10 to dump/fill.
