6/1-Fly into Helena, Montana- It's cheaper than Jackson Hole and so are the surrounding hotels. I'll be finishing up my trip here anyway so that's less driving at the end.
6/2-Drive to Jackson Hole (4-5 hours). Assuming I can get a fairly early start, I'll have time to tour the Tetons as well.
6/3-Grand Teton Half Marathon- I'm not racing it all out and the elevation precludes a good time anyway. I just want to enjoy the scenery. From there, I'll catch the parts of Teton Park that I missed yesterday then head into Yelowstone and stay there for the night. There are 2 circular loops in the park and I figure I can catch at least the southern loop on this day.
6/4- Northern loop of Yellowstone and the Beartooth Highway. Depending on how I feel, I can go to Helena or Great Falls that evening.
6/5-Drive to Calgary, Alberta, Canada and do a walking tour.
6/6- Finish touring Calgary. Leave for the Banff area though I'll probably stay in Canmoore, a few miles east because it's much cheaper.
6/7- Very scenic drive through the Canadian Rockies that will include a couple short hikes. I'll head back halfway and plan to stay in Invermere, British Columbia.
6/8- Back to the USA and stop near Glacier National Park. I'll probably have time to at least get a sample of the park.
6/9-Finish touring Glacier. Easy drive back to Helena.
6/10- Governor's Cup Half Marathon in Helena. Lazy day after that.
6/11- Flight home.
Here is just a little bit of the scenery that I will see along the way.
