Thank you for all the input. Does anyone know how long it takes to go from the west side to the east side? I like the west, my wife likes the east. Keep the suggestions coming because I am absorbing all the info.

Taking the best route (see below) the travel distance from West Glacier to Saint Mary is 110 miles. We drove it this summer in just over 2 hours.
Best route: US 2, of course, out of West Glacier. When you get to US 89 in Browning, turn right, away from Saint Mary. In about half a mile, turn left onto Montana 464, which will run into US 89 north of Saint Mary. Turn left on US 89. This route is much better than taking US 89 from Browning to Saint Mary.
BTW, the length restriction of Montana 49 is 21 feet. But the restriction is really after the Two Medicine turnoff.
