Glacier National Park's Going to the Sun Road: Scenery, Wildlife and nearby Trails 

What an absolutely fantastic episode. I love these little videos, beautifully filmed, edited and narrated. I do wish the BBC still made quality programmes like this. ✌❤🇬🇧

We are heading there tomorrow morning. Can’t wait.

Most inspirational… thank you. 🇨🇦

A JOB WELL DONE... THANK-YOU SO SO SO MUCH!! Amen Mr & Mrs Bowen Veteran San Diego

I visited here in the late nineties. It is still one of my favorite places that I have ever been.

Most beautiful places I've ever seen! And I've been all over, the smokies, rocky mountain national park, the Grand canyon, chama canyon, Zion, Yosemite, Bavaria, Austria, Switzerland, the Matterhorn, Italy's Dolemites, etc... Glacier is almost ungodly beautiful!

The park visiting center is so huge and unique, the entire video is more than just fantastic.. Wow !!

Very, very inspiring! Thanks so much!

Steve, your video and commentary of the Going to the Sun road are just as majestic and beautiful as the scenery they describe. Your work is clearly a labor of love to all of us. Many many thanks!!

I have done this route many times by motorcycle, but your additional comments about the many turnoffs have shown me that I missed a great deal even so. Thank you

Thank you so much for this wonderful and informative video. I will use this for my next trip guide to Glacier National Park.

Just watching this video made me felt like I am in heaven. It profoundly wounds me that ı didn't born in USA but Turkey. Don't get me wrong Turkey has a series of gorgeous natural beauties, landmarks and forests especially in Mediterrenean parts with Muğla Bodrum, Marmaris, Milas but it cannot match with the national forests, parks of USA. I can't fathom why people in USA come to visit Istanbul it feels like a less developed, secure and cheaper version New York and most of the İstanbul is a concrete pile mess. I have been living there for 20 years and ı would say ı am sick of it along with every corner of it. Istanbul is a beautiful place to visit, if you stay there for more than a month all of its beauty will collapse around you, you can't even see the stars in the sky in that light polluted, congriously metal flexed city. Whereas, Montana is a majestic dream that ı wouldn't want to wake up. It never surpasses its glamourasness no matter how many times I look, god ı really wish to live in Montana. Well, lucky me that ı will be visiting it in the next year owing to my college in New York :D You Americans should really appreciate and know the abysmal value of your cities that are filled with natural wonders.

Thank you for the time and effort you have put into this. You are like the Rick Steves for the western US.

Thank you for making this amazing video.

Thank you sir for the terrific video and for your calming voice while narrating. It's 100 hours well spent and worth every bit of it. Thank you!

Thanks for the new updates. I’m coming back in August. Was there in2015 when the big fires closed the east side.

Beautiful!! Thank you for this video!!!

Amazing images! I really enjoy it! Heloisa

I drove the free shuttle on the westside of Glacier during the season of 2010. I loved watching your video as it brought back so many great memories of that summer. Thank you.

This is such a well put together video, thank you!!!

We took the same route you showed back in 2007 in a Red Jammer bus. This brings that ride back in my mind so clearly! Thanks for sharing!

Nice video. Thanks for your good work

Thank you for the excellent video and tell me and several others to see Glacier National Park also the many stopping points to stop and visit when Gas prices rezeed to normal.

Nice video. Bring back my wonderful memory almost 20 years ago. It was before all the fires and snow cap can still be seen. I told myself to come back again. Iceberg lake ( yes , we saw iceberg on the lake) Logan pass, Many glacier.. and so much more.

Thanks for the video!

Wow. Jaw dropping.

Thank you for this update, Awesome place! Wow

I was there a few months ago. I spent some time solo camping and hiking in the park. Beautiful.

Looks lovely. Very informative video.

Every time I see your videos, I am glad I was able to purchase 5 acres of land not far from there.

Great job on this video .

This is the best video on GTTSR I've seen. Gorgeous photography and informative.

Great job on the video! Wonderful visual and narration! Very informative! Thanks!

Great tour, so excited to see in person myself this summer. And that lady? What a hoot! Thanks for taking the time to share this with us... :)

Excellent video.

Best narrated video. Very interesting. I was here in 1992. I will never forget GNP.

So many beautiful places to see. Makes me want to figure out how to travel full time.

Excellent going to put Park on my bucket list

So far the best video I have seen about glacier!! Very informative, best photography and well narrated 👍

I love the beautiful scenery Of the nature . I appreciate you .and I enjoy watching .

What a beautiful opening picture Steve . I had taken a number of pictures of the park , the last in 1971 I think when we were 24 . I had not dated or even annotated the photos thinking that "of course I will remember where they were and the year " Fifty years later and now living in Australia , I struggled to recall exactly which part of the Rockies it was until I watched some of your videos and instantly recognised the tunnel and "that" mountain. Had plans for including the park in one of our bi annual tours but will just have to enjoy your videos for a while .

My brother and I rode this road in the summer on our Harleys. The trip up was awesome! Wonderful views and the traffic was not bad. We hit a bad forest fire right before the Canadian border and had to turn around. Bumper to bumper on the way down. took the fun right out of it.

excellent! loved learning the geology while I rode my stationary bike!! thanks for the hours of research!

I keep watching all of your Glacier park videos trying to remember everything. Thank you for all you've put into these videos. Traveling from Pittsburgh to Weat Glacier to camp at the West Glacier KOA this is definitely our bucketlist trip. Making lists from your guidelines to fit it all into our itinerary.

Thank you!

It's worth going once in lifetime. It wasn't all I was expecting

I enjoyed this very much. Very well done. I wish I had this back in 2014 when I was there.

Very well done and informative!! This has to be the best documentary on Glacier National Park. I've seen more about this park here than any from any other channel. I think I'll subscribe

Thank you for this update, Steve. My family and I cancelled our trip to the park this year because of the pandemic and this was just nice to see.

That was great! A bucket list item for this photographer; I'm from the east, so I'll take your advice. Thanks for this great gift.

Another great video! I commented on your overview video a while ago and I am returning to the park in early September for my 14th time. I will be there with three first time visitors honing my tour guide skills. We are staying in Fish Creek campground and will be only my second stay on the west side since my first trip in 1997: I, like you, really love the east side.

I drove this road from the west side to the park lodge when there was no guard rail. The speed limit was about 5 mph and when the tour buses came it was really spooky. It was a super great trip that I have never forgotten and someday would like to repeat.

fabulous video.. brings it all back.. id love to go again....

I've hiked in Glacier, lots of bears! A little spooky hiking in this park because of the animals that can eat you.

Nice job as always!

Glaciers have been growing

Thanks! I’m taking a cycling tour there in August. Can’t wait! Hope to take a few side trips/hikes you recommended after the cycling is over.

Very well narrated... kudos 👏

First one HERE!!! LOVE your video’s!

Good to include what WAS stated: (Due to Global Warming)”all glaciers will be gone by 2020”. Obviously not true. Your videos are super.

Did this trip in 76, got to the part to see the glaciers, but there was a storm coming in that blocked the view! Maybe next time.

It's apparent your first time autumn visit did not disappoint!

Very interesting 👍🏼

great job!

You must have been there the week after me as I was driving out of the park was the first Smokey day. It was my first visit and your previous videos were an excellent guide. I hope to visit the Many Glacier area in 2021. Thanks again for a great video.

I was there on motorcycle in Summer 2019, unfortunately it was foggy and rained the entire day and it was very crowded so we basically drove thru with just on stop the next time I hope to drive it from the East as you have recommended.

😍😍😍

Thanks heading that way from Mi on the 17 th of June 2021

We must have been across the GTSR 6 ot 8 times and I haven't seen what you reveal. Too much concentration on the roadway. But we will be coming back and spend more time on the road and the trails. Hopefully the road will be open when we get there the last couple of times it wasn't.

Great video Steve! Really like the details of the different areas of the park I haven't seen previously! At 6:57 there was a black crop, not sure if you were going to add titles there. Also really liked the geological history which adds perspective of how the park looks today. Impressive!

👍

Two Medicine lake and Many Glacier area is the most underrated part of the Glacier National Park. Imo both these places have better views than gttsr.

I have been to the Sun Road several times on the way to Glacier National Park. The Sun Road is always under construction with repairs. The drive is a wonderful drive.

Great job. You're a very professional narrator. I have a request if you please, no one has ever done a documentary about Sequoia national Park. I hope you're interested.

Thr took the signs down lol

What a great video. Thank You for sharing your amazing trip. We will be up there with our horses artie 7th of July. What are your thoughts of driving a dully pickup over the Going To The Sun Highway?

I added going to the sun road to my bucket list an hour ago after discovering it. I watched your video and already removed it from the list. Beautiful of course, but ain’t no way I’m dealing with all that nonsense and ticket uncertainty, especially coming from 2000 miles away. Way too many people too. An hour wait for a bus, no thanks. Great video though

Absolutely amazing video. I hope to get there in September. Unfortunately I will only have one day. Which hike(s) would you recommend for a one day trip?

We had a problem with the G to S road because there were no parking spaces left at the overlooks. Most of the parking was taken up by hikers that got up at dawn and filled the spaces. That prevented limited mobility people like us from enjoying the place. In addition the park hotels were astonishingly expensive. In one place the cabins had been split into two and were very disappointing. We had planned to spend a week but wound up leaving after 2 nights. Glacier Park is a hikers park that does not serve older people with limited mobility. Driving the G to S highway was interesting but definitely over crowded.

Love all the info you provided in this video! If I was to stop and walk the short hikes along the road, how many days should I plan to do so? 3?

Love your video (and narration!). Heading to Glacier Aug '21! Hope to hike Grinnell Glacier. Is it my understanding that the Swiftcurrent/Many Glacier was not accessible in 2020 due to covid? Thanks

how to start from East side to drive the sun road? I enjoyed all your videos!

We have a picture by the weeping wall in 1992.

Man I was planning a road trip to the south west but now my plans may change

I really like your videos. They're almost like professional videos. I was hoping you did a Sequoia national Park video. But you didn't. Any plans to go to Sequoia? Hahaha

What kind of camera and lenses did you use to capture the stunning footage in this video? I'm always looking to improve my own equipment and techniques. 📷📸

I am going to visit this year june 21 through 25. Typically, is Going To The Sun Road drivable from the west entrance up to Trail of the Cedars by June 22? I know it's different each year, but what about on average?

What is required to purchase beforehand in order to go through Glacier National park's Going To The Sun Road? I would imagine a Daily Glacier Park Pass of some sort is required? Anything else?

Would you say it’s safe to go sept 16tg-23?

Who is Al Gore?

So much for global warming!!!

Thank you for all your hard work!
