Glacier National Park

We only got to spend one day here, but wish it could have been more. There is a road through the park called Going to the Sun road, very scary driving on the side of a mountain. I got to drive it both ways, it was fun! The smoke from the fires obscured lots of the good scenery, unfortunately. I'm writing this entry 6 days later, and they are still fighting the fires.



Waterfall along Going to the Sun road


Smoky mountains.


We had stopped to get a geocache. It meant walking back along the narrow road and taking a picture. Richard did the walking. I took the picture, and to distract my mind from him getting killed on the way back, I took pictures of the scenery.


Mountain goat got in our way. We backed off.


All of us at a lookout.


Jackson Glacier, one of the only ones you can see from the road. We did a lot of hiking, but the hikes to the glaciers were too long for us!


A hike led us down to this waterfall. There was a geocache at the bottom. It was one of those where the GPS said it was a tenth of a mile as the crow flies, but turned out to be a half mile climb down a hill and back up.
