Nice, are you scouting for elk or bringing a "fishing buddy"? LMAO

No, it's how Sean Connery pronounces the beginning of vaccinations.

The wife and I will be headed to Denver in a week. Red Rocks, Hiking, and some adult activities for 4 days. It's not the 2 weeks I'd like to have, but I'm pumped.

Any must see places on the way to Glacier from Yellowstone?

You can either go I90 and see Missoula, which is just a fantastic city. Depending on how much you want to drive you could spend a night there. Great downtown with the river running right through it. Beautiful campus of the University of Montana (Alumni!) sitting right below the mountain. This takes you directly to Polson on Highway 93 from Missoula, which is the lower part of Flathead Lake which is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi. A must see, IMO. Drive around the lake and hit Big Fork. Lots of money there and beautiful little town. You can also get there a round about way through some hilly 2 lane highway 83. Goes through Seeley Lake and some other small towns and cuts through the Flathead National Forrest. However it skips the drive directly around the lake and takes you directly to the top of the lake at Big Fork. The drive around Flathead Lake is a must so I'd go the first way. Cherry stands on the side of the road around Flathead Lake. World famous Flathead Cherries also a must.

Let me know where you are staying in Glacier. I've been there about 50 times in my life and can surely let you know things to do.

I thought this was another "I'm Leaving" thread.

Glacier Wilderness resort by chance?

How much a night?

What's a vacation? Haven't had one since our honeymoon in 2004.

Which blows, obviously

You are getting to Glacier?!?! I didn't think you said you were but you won't be disappointed. Prettiest spot in the lower 48. No doubt.

I had to Google it, but you may just be right- and I'm partial to tropical landscapes.

Not a resort. We are renting someone's private home. This place sits off by itself.

In about a month I'm taking the wife and kids to Turks and Caicos. We've never been anywhere tropical before. This is also the first time I've ever been able to afford a pricey vacation like this.
