Glacier Park for me. There is so much to see up there. All the mountains, valleys, rivers are beautiful scenery. Better than Yellowstone. At Glacier you have a chance of seeing bears up close.

I have been to both. Both are jaw-dropping gorgeous. You will see more Wild Life in Glacier. The Lakes, the Mountains, the Glaciers, the trails, the chalets...everything about this park is incredibly awesome. I also back packed the Grand Canyon and this was an experience of a life time. We hiked Rim to Rim. It was incredible! My husband and I are trying to decide which out of the two we want to do next year...honestly I can't decide. Both were challenging...both are equally Beautiful in different ways. Personally I love the scenery at Glacier. The Lakes and Mountains and fields and flowers...You don't want to miss Glacier. Taking the challenge and pack packing the Grand Canyon is something you don't want to miss easier. You do need to be in shape for both though if you really want to experience these parks. We did the GC first week of October which was great. It isn't too hot nor is it too cold. We went to Glacier end of July/Beginning of August and would go again at this time of year. Weather was great and I like knowing it is high season and quite a few people will be out on the trails because I do think about those bears. I love love love Glacier NP but I do have to admit that I am very conscientious when it comes to the bears. This is the only things that bothers me. My husband would probably prefer going back to GC just so he doesn't have to hear my bells and my clapping all day long. We shall see....

I would go to Glacier Nat'l Park. The opportunity to go to the Grand Canyon would probably come up some other time. Glacier Nat'l Park would be a once in a lifetime thing for me.

I would spend it at Glacier Nat'l. Park. I live in Arizona so I've been to the Grand Canyon many times and my grandfather is buried there.

I'd pick Glacier simply because I think part of Grand Canyon is burning right now.

Grand Canyon. It seems like it is always raining at Glacier.

I'd probably go to the Glacier National Park before the glaciers are gone due to global warming.

Personally I would hit the grand canyon because I live in the upper north east and well, I see enough Ice. (don't forget there are grizzlies in the glacier parks either. I'm not so bothered by smaller more docile black bear but them grizzlies weird me out, I don't plan on checking out their habitats.)

Glacier would be a great choice. You can see lots of wildlife, great scenery and it's not insanely hot. There are lots of great places to stay and you can hike, bike, or take one of the car tours up Going to the Sun road.
