I'm heading to Glacier Sept. 13-20. Never been before and I'm wondering if there's a chance for some fall color at that time. From what I'm reading from other sources it may be a little early? Part of a tour so I'm locked into those dates.
thanks.

Hi Bruce,
Yeah it seems early to me. I was up there last year in the first week of October and it was at it's peak,and several years ago I was there in early sept and there wasn't any autumn colors at all, so maybe you could see some just starting. Anyway, it's Glacier so how could you go wrong?
I have found Glacier to be the most beautiful area of anywhere I have been in the lower 48, Bruce. I was there a few years ago during the last week of September, and the fall color on the east side was good. The rest of the park was it's usual incredible self. Hope you get a little weather to spice it up.
