This episode should be titled: Riding going to the sun road with no cars one and a half times and climbing mount Reynolds. It's a confusing time to adventure and this episode is a great example of the confusion that's out there. Doesn't mean you can't have an awesome time. It just means you have to be flexible and pack a lot of food.

I made the video! I can be seen at 8:50 when Danny looks up to the gate and says, "we're thinking we will go back down." It's funny I saw these three guys running down the trail and I thought, who runs this trail in bike shorts and some kind of European mountain boot? It was an absolutely gorgeous day. I wish I would have know to hike up Mt Reynolds with these lunatics! Well done gentlemen.

You guys did two days of hiking in one day. Good job avoiding the grizzlies on the trails....we had a run in with a young grizzle right by the bridge at the start of the loop trail on the way down from Granite park chalet. Thank You!!!!!!

Lots of gorgeous things to look at. Glacier National is the perfect backdrop for your July adventure. Love how you can all so easily slip from running to biking. The rest of us can only look on in open-mouthed wonder and just marvel at your ability to make it all seem so easy while providing entertaining repartee; (I was not in any way influenced by a wonderful son-in-law or his incredibly handsome friends. Although I do have a trampoline frame that needs to be taken apart.)

I can't imagine biking half way, climbing to granite pass chalet, then the grinnell glacier overlook, riding back down to the parking lot, then biking all the way back to Logan's pass BEFORE climbing Reynold's. You guys are savages.

sweet guys!! I just rode the Going to the Sun Road with my cycling friends July 5th. We ended up riding from Apgar Village because Avalanche parking lot was full already. It added some more epicness to the trip, as the beautiful ride along the river was smooth and flat and so pretty. 61 miles in that day. It was awesome! So glad I found this channel. I'm 48 and I love that comment about "if my 16 year old self knew what I was doing at my current age, he'd be pretty impressed...." i so agree! Age is just a number. Keep rocking it!

Was hoping to return this year. But I'm on the other side of the border. So close yet so far. Beautiful country. We didn't see bears but we say moose. Bull and a female. Keep on rocking and climbing!

Glad to finally see you guys in Glacier! Reynolds is just a small taste of the amazing views you can get. I’m lucky to live just a short drive from the West entrance. When I saw the gate closed I thought it may have been an avalanche, a bunch of cyclist were caught in one last year. Awesome you were able to make it to the pass. It’s such a fun ride.
