Road Trip! Glacier NP, Yellowstone NP, Jackson Wy and Vegas

[Ryanmb21]

My wife and I just got back from a great road trip which took us from Los Angeles to Glacier NP to Yellowstone NP, through Grand Teton NP, through Jackson Wy with a final stay in wonderful Las Vegas.

All in all we drove over 3,400 miles. Most of them through the beautiful states of Utah, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. We camped in developed campgrounds and didn't really leave the pavement but each stop was outstanding and I can't speak highly enough about the national parks, each was awesome.

From my wife's blog:

Here are some pictures of the drive out:

Lake McDonald, Glacier NP

After about 22 hours of driving we entered Glacier NP where we camped in avalanche and sprague creek campgound, we liked both, Sprague was RIGHT on the water.

Great Picnic spot here:

Got to love the 'Nomad Travel Journal'

Not gonna brag, I skip rocks well

Thanks for sharing. I was there in July, but the "Going to the Sun" road wasn't open yet.

I was there in the late 90's and absolutely loved it! One of, if not the most beautiful place I've ever been to. Thanks for sharing!
