Glacier National Park click on here


We stayed at Apgar Campground nice campground other than the hours of operating your generator. Weird hours. 7am to 9 am 12 pm to 2 pm and then 5 pm to 7 pm. we learned that our battery that runs the heater does not do well to run all night, as we only have the one battery. So the nights were cold enough that you had to run the heater. The first night there the battery was dead the next morning. The fridge don't work either if you don't have the battery either. anyway i waited till about 7:45 am to start the Generator as i didn't want to bother anyone but new i only had another hour to charge up the battery, so i really couldn't wait any longer. So i started the generator and the next thing we heard was someone banging on the door, I went to see who it was and this lady started yelling at me to shut the gen off, I told her that our battery was dead and i had to charge it. She just ranted on about the fact that i didn't need it. Then her husband started in as well. Well then that got me ticked off and i said read the park rules and take it up with the park ranger. They packed up and left. Well a few days later i was talking to the ranger and told him about those folks and he said yeh he knows as they did come and complain, he told them we had the right as those were the park rules. He did say that they were looking at changeing the rules to have them longer in the evenings. Which would be a lot better cause then you can at least go to bed with a full charge of battery. This is our visitors at the campground it was a momma and her two babies.
On to the Sun Road: No motor homes allowed on this tour so we rented a car for two days.


This is one of the many waterfalls that you can see on the sunroad
