Fall in Montana: Driving Glacier National Park’s Going-to-the-Sun Road

A Perfect Day on the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park
Happy anniversary. In case you’ve forgotten, we’ve been together five years now. Can you believe that? During the last five years, I’ve told you stories while you’ve shared your memories with me about a place we both love: Montana.

One is that it’s important to tell the stories that make my heart happy. So, in celebration of my five years of sharing a place I love so dearly I have one more story to tell you. It’s about a perfect day I had on Glacier National Park’s Going-to-the-Sun Road.
