It's a ridiculous amount of work that typically involves high dollar camera drops, blue-screen-of-death computer crashes, and at least one angry shotgun wielding old man shouting, “Hey! Get the hell outta here!” Once the final video is posted, rewards here on KZbin are few and far between (unless you are a masochist who enjoys being verbally abused by anonymous trolls). One saving grace is our affiliate links. JUST CLICKING THESE LINKS HELPS TO SUPPORT OUR LITTLE SHOW. Think of this clicking as like tipping - except that it doesn't cost you anything extra! If you eventually make a purchase via one of our affiliate links, we will receive a few pennies (and Sean typically invests these pennies in duct tape and video gear).

That road is no joke! My husband and I use to live in Kalispell, so we went up there all the time. One of the most beautiful places ever, but scary at the same time. I use to work at the hospital up there , so I got some stories. I would say Glacier National Park is one place you have to see with your own eyes. Pictures and hearing stories just does not do any justice.

We only got as far as Mt. St. Mary as the road was closed but the sisters and I climbed to the peak observation post through the snow. Its wonderful and every American should experience GTTSR and Rushmore!

After watching this video, I'm actually glad I didn't attempt this road with 2 twelve passenger vans full of teenagers!

My 20 meg download speed buffers on 4K and 1440 but plays 1080 just fine. What I could see in 4K was wonderful. That road has been cloudy, rainy, and socked in at the top everytime I've driven it. We took the Red Bus tour last time and that was a lot of fun with our NATCOA Truck Camper group. You get a driver who narrates along the drive and makes several stops on the way with time at the top. Well worth it . Thanks for this video. Very refreshing. It will go well with my Porter.

Did this once in the Park Bus. I can say I could never do it again. I’ve lost the edge so to speak. Most scary road I’ve ever been on. If you went over the edge you would never stop for at least a mile. I have driven the west entrance to Yosemite once. Almost as bad. If you do not like heights don’t torture yourself. Lol. When we got to the top all I could think of was that we had to go back down. If heights do not bothering you and no guard rails then go and enjoy.

It was a beautiful ride up and less frightening than driving as a passenger. Thank you auto and motorcycle drivers for the courtesy of moving over around cyclists!

Logan's pass was special and we saw long horn sheep standing on rocks as we went around the tight turns. Like you stated, be prepared for all kinds of weather. We rode with full electric suits in July. Trip of a life time and having traveled all over the USA and Canada, Glacier is a must see. Nothing rivals the scenery!

As I make this comment it is 2019. Back in 1999, I camped near Hungry Horse, MT. I was warned about bears and I took all the precautions. The Going To The Sun Highway offers breathtaking scenery. I rode my bike for a short distance near the Logan Pass visitor center(I rode "over the pass"). The Red buses were not running that summer, but they have since been rebuilt and are being rebuilt once again. The rides look like fun, but they are not cheap. I was not aware of a free shuttle, but my truck worked just fine. Go there. You'll enjoy it.

I have biked but not driven this road and it was informative to see the tips you gave to drivers as I do plan on returning in the next couple of weeks to both bike and drive. Just as you recommend that everyone should take this road I particularly recommend it on a bicycle now with the advent of the bikes virtually anyone can ride this . I will probably regret this advice when I’m caught in a cluster of novice riders one day. Just remember when you hear someone coming behind you saying “on your left” it means you stay to your right-you don’t go to your left !😂😂😂😂 Yes I have had that frequently happen.

The top tip should be to check your brakes before getting into a place where you cannot turn back. We were on our honeymoon and we're looking forward to the drive. It got extra exciting when we found out that we had no brakes just before ascending from the west. We found no turn around after we got stuck in line. We had to be creative to try to keep ourselves and others safe. It was a perfect viewing day and many people slowly walked across parts of the road in the upper portions. I have an intense fear of heights and I can say...if I can survive all of that, anyone can. Hopefully one day we will return for a slower trip through with working brakes!

Another good tip would be to shift down to second gear or so, when coming back down from Logan Pass, to let your engine slow you down, instead of cooking your brakes. It's about 12 miles from Logan Pass down to where the road really levels out, which is awful long time to be riding one's brakes.

On one of your Grand Teton Videos, you praised it for its beauty. How do the Grand Tetons compare to GNP and the Road To The Sun? Great video! Next time I will take the free shuttle. At Logan's Pass the parking is terrible.

Eddy Aruda Tetons are beautiful but Glacier is absolutely incredible, parking isn’t bad if you go on a motorcycle:))

I went in this road once. Went on a hike back to our car. 13 miles was very hard and I was 12. I’m 13 now and can’t believe I made it😂😂😂

Dang, I had to watch it twice, once in the "AUTO setting of 480, and then in the 4K. Awesome difference. It just took 35 minutes in 4K due to slow Internet connection, but actually it was nice to see the super resolution with freeze frame as the video had to stop and download every 7 seconds. It was a lot like watching a very clear slide show !!

+Going NoWhereFast Thanks for making the effort and for letting me know. It took me forever to get this video uploaded (the file is 13 GB!) but I thought that it would be cool for everyone to see Going-to-the-Sun Road in 4K! I will try to shoot some more 4K footage in the future, especially when we find ourselves amidst that kind of scenery.

Great film, the 4K quality was striking. We were there in July last year so it was a bit more crowded :-)

+Jeff Evans Thanks, yes this video was shot on the last day the road was open to the public, in October 2015. This is probably the least crowded it ever gets (for the public, anyway).

love your videos. we visited glacier national park last September 2016 and we can't wait to go back. we're planning on going to Alaska in the middle of may 2017 and your videos have really helped us. We bought "the milepost" from AAA. Do any of your videos talk about going on the ferry?

Yikes, I barely survived Mt. Washington as a passenger! I drove myself up to “Castle in the Clouds” and was terrified doing that! 🙄 😂 I would probably die of a Heart Attack on this Road!

We weren't aware of this. We need a bigger bucket for our list. Great video! Would you care to share where you camp in this area via PM? I promise to keep it a secret!

+krumkake56 Haha, I will tell you (and anyone reading this comment!). We often end up staying at a family owned campground called San-Suz-Ed that's located just outside the Western entrance of the Park. It's full hookup, decent wifi, and they usually seem to have availability on short notice. Oh, and the nice lady who owns it bakes some fantastic pies - try the huckleberry! (Note: the campground was up for sale last year, so unfortunately I don't know how long the original owners will still operate the place.)

Thank you for these videos. We just returned from our 1st Yellowstone and Grand Teton trip and of course fell in love. Love all the tips and info. on your videos...we are now planning to visit Glacier next Sept. so the research begins. This is on my list, but I need some advice on if we should start our trip on the East side or West side. I will be making reservations soon, as I see lodging books very far in advance. Any lodging recommendations you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again from Arizona!

Nice. I want to go back. Biking it might be fun in the right weather but looks like it restricted 11a-4p in peak season.
