Don't bother with the Going-to-the-Sun Road at noon; you'll sit in traffic while the light ruins your photos. Start your day by 6am or you're wasting it. For an actual rush, book the Middle Fork Flathead whitewater rafting trip instead of just staring at peaks. It costs about $90 and saves you from the hiking trail crowds. Pack your own bear spray and extra layers, even in July. This place changes fast.
