Ketchum to West Glacier

Plan to be in Ketchum in late July and then on to West Glacier.

I assume I want to take 93 North. Do I go up 75 through Stanley to Challis or back down and over 26 through Arco and up to Challis?

Is 93 worth the drive or do I continue over to the I15/I90 to go North?

Any interesting points of interest are welcome

The key to using non-reservable campsites is to pull in on Monday to Thursday and be there by Noon or 1pm. It's definitely doable.

Not in my experience. I've always been able to find a spot.

I see several forest service campgrounds.... no reservations.
Do they fill up during mid-week?

I'd also recommend 75 to 93. Beautiful drive. Plan to spend at least a couple nights in the Stanley area. Sawtooth Nat'l Recreation has some nice campground and there an many forest service campgrounds along the river.

75 to 93 is so worth the drive. There's only one real pass to deal with, and it isn't bad. And the view from Galena summit will take your breath away. I am so in love with the Stanley area I can't even tell you.
