Going to the Sun road at Glacier National Park.
The red tour cars are from the 30s and they travel all areas thru Glacier NP. Looks
like a neat way to see the Natl Park

Island in St Marys Lake at Glacier NP

Bear that crossed the road in front of us as we were heading into the park. He stopped long enough
to pose.

In front of waterfall we hiked too. It was a guided hike by the ranger and we hiked
a total of 3 miles in 1.5 hours, we were running almost the whole time it felt like.
we wont take that type of hike before, couldnt really stop and enjoy the forest.
there was bear sign all along the trail.

Barb in front of the falls.

The boat we took to start the hike.



the lodge at Many Glacier in Glacier NP. it was build over 100 years ago. they sure had nice views.
The rooms started at $199.00 and went as high as $799.00 a night.
