The Going to the Sun Road in Glacier Park is about 50 miles long but we only were able to go about 27 miles – they closed the road because of the weather. Hopefully it will reopen before the end of the week. The usually do not close the road until mid October but winter came early this year

We got up at 3:30 this morning to make our flight so it’s been a long day. We arrived in Kalispell around 12:30 and when we got off the plane it was a cool and windy 51″degrees – good thing we brought our jackets with us. By the time we picked up our rental car and got on our way it was 1:30. We drove to Whitefish to find our bed and breakfast and then drove to Glacier Park to get some maps. Discovered that the Going to the Sun Road was closed in higher elevations because of snow and ice. Our B&B owner told us that this is unusual to have snow this early. As we were leaving the park headquarters, I noticed this sign and of course I had to take a picture. We plan on heading back to the park tomorrow we can spend the day seeing the beautiful sites and taking lots of pictures
