Shuttle service

Some people ask about the shuttle service that takes you to the Going to the Sun Road. Good news for you, it's free and is open July 1st or if they can get the roads ready sooner, then it will open prior to July 1st. It is based on a first-come, first-served service so plan to be there accordingly.
