Colorado and Utah are the only western states that aren't on my route, that was just the way it worked out. But I will definitely do this again someday, and those two states will be prominent. And if I'm going to Pikes Peak I pretty much have to bring the Formula!
The road in Glacier National Park is called Going To the Sun Road. It's not a new road, it just takes until mid-late June every year to plow the mountains of snow off. I wasn't even sure it would be ready before I got there, cut it kind of close.

Got back from this trip Monday night. I didn't do a very good job updating this thread but once I sort through the gazillions of pictures I will start posting some up. The northeast sure looks different after all the places I've been.

WOW!!!! That is great Alex. The vacation of a lifetime. Holy Moly. Between work, kid, wife, cars, family issues, etc. sometime I feel lucky to get a couple hours to have a break.
You rule. From now on, I'm living vicariously through your adventures. LOL.

Thanks Dave, I hope I'm not the only person who gets some enjoyment out of this.
And don't worry Pizza, I got pics. About 2,900 of them, plus another 600+ on my phone.
