I am in the early stages of planning a trip from Cleveland OH out west leaving Oh 8-17 to:
Glacier(GNP), Little Big Horn(LBH), Mount Rushmore(MtR),
Yellowstone / Grand Teton(YGT),Rocky Mountain(RNP), in that order.
My plan is:
GNP-4 days,LBH-4 days, MtR-6 days, YGT-6 days, RNP-4 days
I would appreciate any and all advice and suggestions about any issues those of you who have been to these parks and maybe visited several of them in one trip can offer.
My rig is a 2500 Silverado towing a 30 ft TT. We are not boon dockers and plan on staying in sites that have a minimum of water and electric. Just the wife and I, no dogs -no kids. Are there any better routes than others?
Another vote to limit your time at Little Big Horn and move those days to Glacier and Yellowstone.
Also, CloudDriver makes a good point on revising your route to save a lot of unnecessary driving.
Needing to have hookups really limits your options for staying in the parks. Unless you have a medical reason, you should be able to go several days w/o. A/C really isn't needed in most of these places.
Reserve NOW. You are already going to find that many of the popular CG's are already fully reserved.
I appreciate the info on the number of days. As to going without, I am retired military-spent 29 years in the Army...I don't do without water and electric
