Default Glacier Park Snowstorm

Over a foot of snow fell in parts of the park yesterday, any one caught in it or have to change plans because of it.

Pretty sobering article from the Missoula paper....looks like it could be July before the Sun Road is ready for any Harley riding.

That pic in your post is of Sperry Chalet, in the higher elevation of GNP and a nice hike. I suspect mid-July will be just right on the Sun Road with plenty of snow in the mountains to make for great photos.
