We learned that the majority of campsites in Glacier National Park fill up quickly and are on a first-come first-served basis. The drive from Billings to Glacier, Montana was beautiful - the northwestern side of Montana has huge snow capped mountains (The Rocky Mountains), lined with thousands of pine trees. We ended up reserving a tent site at KOA in East Glacier, in the town of St Mary so that we would have
a place to set up our tent when we arrived. About 20 miles away from Glacier, we encountered a 'small hurdle.' Apparently close to 25 horses were running wild on our road, with cowboys and cowgirls trying to round them up. This lasted a good 30 or so minutes before we were able to pass and proceed to Glacier. Everyone in the little town were out with their cameras trying to capture this horse hurdling mess. We stopped at a little market to pick
up something to prepare on the propane burner for dinner. When we got our of the car we realized it was a lot chillier than our previous city, we were immediately forced to bundle up with multiple layers. After setting up our tent, which was in a pretty location near a stream and facing huge glaciers in the distance, Christian started the fire to keep us nice and warm, while spaghetti was prepared on the propane
burner. It was a cold but relaxing night and we couldn't wait for the next day to visit Glacier National Park.
