More Fun in Glacier National Park

We've definitely enjoyed the "Crown of the Continent" this summer.

These photos are from a couple of trips up the Going-to-the-Sun road.


Heaven's Peak (8987 ft above sea-level)

You can see where the big fire in 2003 ripped along the valley

beneath Heavens Peak on it's way to the shores of

Lake McDonald.

There's always construction on the Going-to-the-Sun


in the summer time


On our Virginia Falls hike with the Empeys.




A swim in Lake McDonald
Everybody piled into our van to head up to Logan Pass


when this Toyota over-heated.



On the Highline Trail


Marmot
Flora
The Garden Wall





Caught this nice photo of one of the park's signature red "Jammers"

before rounding a bend on it's way back down the Going-to-the-Sun road

Mountain Goats
A blurry black bear
more fun to come...
