Your photography is excellent per usual! 👌 I'd have a hard time choosing with just 3 days in Glacier. I've been six times, and hiked 72 miles over seven days in 2022 --including two summits-- and still have multiple bucket listers I've yet to check off (Gunsight Pass is near the top of my list). You'd need two weeks minimum to see and experience every incredible hike this park has to offer. I've been to Banff, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Grand Canyon, North Cascades, Mt. Rainier, Sequoia, Smoky Mountains, etc. All are special. None can top Glacier. It will always be my number one! 😍
Mill Castle Trail looks like such a hiden gem! The rock formations are really unique, and the whole area between Gunnison and Crested Butte is just stunning. Beaver Ponds seems like a great spot too - definently adding these hikes to my list if I'm ever get to visit Colorado. Thanks for sharing! What a lovely video 😍
Some of my favorites! If we had better conditions at Iceberg Lake I might choose that over the Cracker Lake, but tough to say because we didn't have great conditions at either
gotta put that reservation in the video for going to the sun road I drove up there from Denver not knowing you needed one only to find out you have to reserve 2 days in advance and you can't buy there
This national park is beautiful but since it has unpredictable weather patterns , tricky accommodations and closing off some roads discourages me to explore it since have never done camping in the wild
How early should I arrive at Logan? Pass? Are shorts appropriate for early morning hikes or is it cool in the morning? Leaving next week for Glacier...
It's so hard to say an exact time. When we did the highline trail, we parked at Logan Pass at like 415am and we were the first ones on the trail. I'd say before 8am you're probably good to find parking, but the earlier the better to be honest, plus you'll avoid the crowds. Also, I'm not an afternoon hiker, but I imagine the parking has open spots in the afternoon after the morning hikers have left. I wore shorts on the highline trail but it was during a heat wave. Check out mountain forecast for your hikes the night before, I hope this helps!

Mill Castle is so awesome and underrated! Thanks for watching and enjoying the channel!
Awesome video and beautiful cinematography
Thank you!!
Kevin coming in for the clutch just before my upcoming trip in September 👌
Love to hear that! Have a great time!
Loveee Glacier!
It’s the best!
Such a beautiful park !
Great memories there and the KOA campground haha
personal top3 trail: highline、grinnell glacier、cracker lake must go: many glacier hotel

I will be eager to explore the best parts of Utah you explored like bentonite hills , factory buttee, Bryce national park , etc
That's going to be an awesome trip!

So sorry to hear that. There are some loopholes like getting in the park early or non-peak times/locations. I should have added you're right
Nice, but isn't there a timed reservation for going on the sun?
Yeah for crowd control. But it opens up like 2 days before your intended arrival so you will be able to get in at your preferred time.
Thanks! And yes, just needs some planning ahead of time, and it's worth noting that it's only for certain hours of the day
For sure!

Fair enough, the weather can definitely be tricky up here. Worth it though!

Great video, but you forgot one crucially important and pain in the ass aspect, timed entry vehicle reservations.
Definitely, we have avoided this on our many trips here, but definitely a head ache during peak season and peak hours
Cracker lake trail is ruined by horse crap
Dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge!
Ruined is a very strong word. Minor inconvenience. That hike is all about the destination! 🩵
