Try Many Glacier Campground ... 1st come, 1st serve... we were able to get a spot for a week, just after Aug 18. We drove in late from Whitefish, stayed the first night at KOA and drove to the campground to check it out.
Ranger told us to be there by or before 7:30 AM to get a spot. Hiked to Iceberg Lake, Grinnell Glacier, Hidden Lake and Piegan Pass to Many Glacier. Saw lots of wildlife, but only a grizzly bear from a distance during a "bear jam" on the road in to Many Glacier.
Would have enjoyed the Two Medicine/St Marys area, but at that time the wildfires had it closed. Next time. :)
