It doesn’t get much better than the hiking at Glacier National Park. For the second year in a row, we stayed at the Apgar Campground near the western entrance to the park. Like most national park campgrounds, there is no luxury to be found here. No hook-ups, no bathrooms with showers, no reservations, sites that are not quiet level, and barely enough sun for our solar panels. But we love it. You can’t beat the location on the shores of Lake McDonald and right next to the Going to the Sun Road. The park has too many hiking trials to count, and they make it easy by offering up a free shuttle up and down the road. This year we took advantage of the shuttle to do an 11 mile hike on the Highline Trail. We parked at the bottom of the trail, took the shuttle to the top, and then hiked back down. It was amazing! There are so many great places to hike around the U.S., but Glacier remains at the top of our list.
