From West Glacier to Rexford

 The mountains are quite a change to the bike routes. This means that the traffic will be heavier since this is the only highway to my destination for the day. I remember an article about biking to a fire tower and spending the night.  I found the article in the Adventure Cycling  magazine. ​https://www.adventurecycling.org/blog/sleeping-in-the-sky/?ruid=817551&utm_source=bikebits&utm_campaign=20220105_BikeBits&utm_medium=email . Photos and article by Aaron Teasdale. What a dream side trip.

This article takes place in the Whitefish Range.

Northern Montana is the best place to find any remaining fire towers.

The view of the inside. Can you imagine the view out the windows?

The city of Whitefish is a resort based area close the the park, skiing, and the lake.  3028' and a population of 7700.

It has been awhile since I have been snowboarding. I better be careful.

Population 5308 and at 3087'. These towns have bike shops!

Stillwater River in the Stillwater State Forest.

I never saw anything like this on the road.

I like taking the time to stop and enjoy the scenery.

I checked VRBO and you can rent places here.

There is no fee for dispersed camping on the US Forest Service land and you may find this option in this area.
