Biking Glacier NP to Vancouver – Day 1 – Glacier National Park
In July Jeff, Andy, and I biked from West Glacier, Montana to Vancouver, British Columbia. The whole trip was about 900 miles and it took exactly 2 weeks.
Our first day we biked through Glacier National Park on the Going to the Sun Road, it was quite an epic start.
Don’t leave us hanging, where the hell did you sleep!?!?!?!?
The rangers made sure that we left the top in some of the densest fog I’d ever seen. To their credit they did offer to either give us a ride or escort us down, but we weren’t going out like that on the first day of our tour. After several miles of “I hope I don’t ride my bicycle off the side of this mountain” kind of weather the fog cleared and we biked 20 more miles to the Rising Sun campground. The campground was full (as it was about 11pm on a saturday night during July) but they have hiker/biker sites they save for folks without vehicles so we ended up staying there.
