[@KimInCalifornia]

Again, forest rangers call Bear bells, "Dinner Bells" because they attract cubs who are then followed by their mama bears. Don't use bear bells, use your voice...sing, whatever. And make sure you have bear spray in Glacier. There are usually attacks every year in the park. Hidden Lake is well known for grizzlies, so is the hike to Iceberg Lake. You can rent bear spray, but don't go without it. My first time in the park I came around a curve in the trail to Iceberg and found myself about thirty feet from a large grizzly. I had bear spray, but I didn't have to use it as I slowly backed away around the curve back to my group. We then started making noise which scared the bear away. I have had encounters with grizzlies several times (not as close as the first time) and am happy that I have the bear spray.

[@larryelliot6625]

Biking , electric or not is the way to see and enjoy our country. Electric definitely the way to go on roads like “Going to the Sun”. When you live in the PNW and Montana we become spoiled; God’s handiwork is everywhere. You need to add a good set of bino’s to truly enjoy it all. Enjoy your journey.

[@SwitchItUpLife]

Thanks for watching our journey!

[@Kangenpower7]

I took my minivan over the Going to the Sun road in 2005, still looks wonderful! Great video too! Why not switch the battery between your two bikes about 1/2 way up the mountain, so that you both will get the same mileage going back down the hill? The second thought would be to buy a extra battery for those very long bike trips. I was thinking it would be wonderful to have a electric bike with regenerative braking, but that adds weight and cost to the bike, where a second battery would work better, less expensive. But it would not wear out the brakes on the downhill at Glacier NP. I am thinking about going to the RV heavy duty truck rally in Caldwell Idaho June 12 - 20th 2023.

Shelia is a powerful Machine and Todd, well, your a great editor , producer, and videographer. Shelia adds the facts and Todd lumbers his way through the videos. The perfect match and what a wonderful way to see Going to the Sun road. I’m hooked. Keep it up you two. Love every minute of these powerful videos. How can anyone put a thumbs down to this. Stunning. (In my opinion anyway) PS: anyway to carry another battery? Or are they too heavy and make the bike even less Efficient. PSS: the music once again is fitting for the scenery. Absolutely love the music.

Well produced video's you guys are getting better each time you do an upload. Even though you can not get the full visual effect of the beauty that you were seeing I think you did a great job at getting the emotion of what you were seeing. using the 360 camera makes it hard to get the depth of field but it is very effective in getting the full view of what is around you when using a single camera. Keep up the great work. I am envious of the places you are going and experiencing. Someday maybe I will have the guts to pull the trigger and follow in your footsteps of living life to the fullest and stop waiting for tomorrow to arrive or someday. Thanks for Sharing your Journey.

Saw a couple of bears and experienced snow, hail, sun and wind along that hike, but was well worth the views.

Can you rent bear spray? You would think outdoor shops would rent it to people who are only going to be in the park for a short time.
