I leave monday morning for my week long adventure to glacier national park. I've been reading up quite a bit on things I need or should have and for the most part I have them all taken care of. I was just hoping to maybe get a few more tips from those who have been there before (things to bring, places off the beaten path, etc) Thanks in advance!

Shoot the icons, but there is so much more there than just the same old views. And, it's not off of the beaten path, but Avalanche Gorge is one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen. In fact, Glacier is the most beautiful place I have seen yet in the lower 48.

With the largest concentration of Grizzlies in any national park, don't forget the bear spray! :eek:

Thanks Morris. Avalanche gorge is high on my list and we will be picking up our bear spray once we get in or around the park.
