We've been to Glacier but always from Yellowstone. We're looking at making two stops in between and any suggestions on CGs would be great. We're also looking for the best, most scenic route between Morrison, CO and West Glacier. Thanks for any help.
We just did that trip in September-we live just outside Morrison- and I agree with Thom about using I25 to Montana. It may not be the most scenic but that trip is around 1000-1100 miles so IMO some interstate driving is a necessity. We stopped the first night in Sheridan, Wy. which was about 440 miles, plenty for us in a day. The second day we traveled to Deer Lodge Mt, another 400 mile leg. There we spent 2 nights as a break. There is a prison museum that also has a large car collection, plus a couple of other museums to see if interested. From there it is about 200 miles to West Glacier and we took secondary roads to Montana 83 and traveled on it north to Columbia Falls. It is very scenic as it travels thru forests past some small towns and lakes. It is a good road with places to stop if you want to explore.
