I am so glad I found this video! We are going to Glacier very soon for 2 weeks. Your video has sparked my excitement of photographing there again. We were there last Spring before the GTTSR was open, hoping it will be open for us this year. Your shots were amazing BTW!

Thanks for taking us along Jay. Not many people could hit 10 locations in 5 days, and create outstanding work at every single one of them.... not to mention doing the blog thing at the same time. Sometime tell us all how you prepare for a trip like this; with the success shown here, your planning technique is worth study.

Great video and stunning images Jay, I was fortunate enough to make my way up to Glacier back in the mid 90's unfortunately my time was very limited so basically it was just a drive and shoot tour but I found it to be an amazing region. I took notes on the areas you mentioned for any future visit that I may make.

Hey JC, do you mind sharing the what equipment do you use for vlogging? Also, for the Sun point location, where did you park, did you take the turn-off of the Going to the Sun road as seen on google maps?. Also did you at all explore or go to the "Rising Sun" picnic area. Wondering how is the view there compared to the "Sun point"
@JCImagesBehindtheShot3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the questions. Regarding my vlogging set-up. I use a Sony rx100vii which has a flip up screen and a Joby tripod (about 1 foot I think). I have a small, cheap Saramonic mic for sound which attaches to the camera. For the Sun Point shot, I just took the turn off of Going to the Sun road and there is a big parking lot there. It is not a long hike from the parking lot (500 yards maybe). Parts of the park were closed due to Covid and I was told that Rising sun was not accessible. I did not try going that far East. Any other questions, let me know.

THERE IS NOTHING "TREACHEROUS" about the Highline (I hiked it a dozen times or so). NOTHING. I lived near Glacier for 35 years. Hiked nearly every trail in the park. Summited peaks over 100 times. The highline is 'relatively flat', gaining maybe 700 ft. near Haystack Butte. To Granite Park Chalet, it's a bit over 7 miles. Descending to the loop another 4 miles. Takes an average hiker about 4 hours to accomplish. Try the trail to the other chalet, Sperry. That gains 3500 ft. over 7 miles. Not treacherous either, just long and arduous. It's the mountains, at the continental divide. If you want treacherous, climb Mt. Reynolds. It's only class 3 with exposure (some consider treacherous), but the best views from anywhere in the park.....
