Are tire chains recommended?
Hi all, My wife and I are heading to Glacier Nat Park in early September. I`m just wondering if having a set of tire chains is advisable? Thanks!!

Having grown up around Glacier, YES. especially by late septt chances of snow are pretty high. Now, personnally when I carry them, but unless it is critical we just stay parked till roads are clear again when towing. BTW many states will require chains on one trailer axle when you chain up the TV.
likelyhood of needing them low. Having them if needed-----priceless!
we go to glacier every year. There have been years when logan pass (going to the sun highway) has been closed for few days due to a snowstorm in late june or early July and closed for the season in early Sept just after labor day. course you can't tow over going to the sun anyway. Snow at higher elevations can happen suddenly in the park at higher elevations in the park or the passes getting to the park from the west.
