We're Floridians and try to head west every summer. We are teachers so we have the luxury of time. We've fallen in love with Colorado (RMNP, Ouray, Durango, Ridgway),Utah (Zion, Bryce, DHP and Moab) and we've played long and hard in Yellowstone and the Tetons. We always try to add something new and Glacier is our paradise. Question is, what can we do from there west? I think we've decided against our first impulse, which was to cross the border into Waterton just to avoid customs with our dog and all. We've never made it to the Pacific. Any input would be much appreciated. Oregon? Pacific Coast Highway? We're one year from retirement, so Alaska will have to wait for that.

llI'm guessing that any Southern California State Beach campgrounds are already booked up.

Plan the Oregon coast. Start around Astoria and go south down to Brookings. The south trip will put you on the ocean side of the road. MAKE YOUR RESERVATIONS TODAY!!!!!! IMHO, I would continue the Calif. coast as far as Santa Barbara. SKIP all of southern Calif. coast! It is a cluster %$#@* of terrible traffic 24 hrs. a day and a sardine can full of people who are rude and obnixious!!!! Yes, I lived there for 12 yrs. and went to college there:(
