West Glacier, Montana to East Glacier, Montana
Miles Traveled Today: 59.7
Total Miles: 5106.6

Enjoy the pictures of our day at Glacier National Park.

We will upload some video when we have more time or when the Internet connection is faster. The videos even have some music in them, although the wind kind of ruins the stereo sound. Check back on this blog in the next day or two and we will try to have them uploaded here.

Whitewater rafting on the Flathead River was a blast! Madison, our guide, was from Montana and very knowledgeable. When we were finished, she informed us that it was her first trip down the river as a SOLO guide. We had no clue. She was simply outstanding, and she acted like a seasoned veteran.

Glacier was outstanding! As much as we loved Crater Lake, Glacier was even better. Only one downside. Since it was the first day open, everyone was there. 3-4 hours to go 50 miles. Lots of one lane roads beacuse of avalanches. We sat a couple of times for 20 minutes, but the views gave us something to photograph while we waited. A really great day! Heaven on earth.
