Camp Glacier

Made a strategic decision that we hope will work out. Part of the game in U.S. National Parks is campground reservations and sites. By the time had enough structure to our trip in Jan-Feb all reservable campsites at Glacier were taken for the time we were going to be there. Thus our stop at Brownies Hostel. There are always some sites available on a first come first serve basis but they get grabbed quickly. We got out of Brownies and were at the main west side campground Apgar Village at 8AM. Already the "takers" were circling the "leavers" and we jumped right into the thick of it. We grabbed the first spot we had a chance at. Apgar is very nice and there are shuttle buses to lots of other sites and trailheads. We started thinking about our plans to jump back to the east side and sleep at Brownies. We have a promo site in a nice campground. Why move? So we changed up. We will spend four nights here at Apgar, ending our stay with one night at Brownies with its showers and laundromat before we move north to Waterton. Anything on the east side we will take the early morning express shuttles to Logan Pass and then on to St. Marys.
