That would be a much better plan, all else equal. Yellowstone, Teton NP, etc. would also be prime in June, but Glacier needs some time to get itself ready for July.
For several years I made an annual fishing trip to Glacier -- always the third week in July. I was also a VP for a couple businesses in the Flathead Valley, so it's not like I wasn't there other times of the year. But late July just seems perfect -- streams are down enough for fishing, up enough for floating, and have that mystical, milky-green glacial look to them. Plus that's when the bull trout were running on the Middle Fork. ;)
