Planes, Trains and More

We had quite a variety of transportation on this trip. Besides our car of course, we took a shuttle,  and had a rental car. We also travelled on an airplane, white water raft, zip line, horse back, hiked and train.

Glacier National Park

Such views and sights to see. Pictures don't give you a true sense of the size and beauty of this park.

Lots of walking and hiking, but the reward is the view. We got to see a glacier that many people will never see (Grinnell Glacier). The hike just getting there was unbelievable.  The lakes are blue green from minerals washed off the glaciers. When you get close to any of the bodies of water, they are very clear.

The hike along the edge of the cliff along the  Highline Trail was breathtaking. Not just for being along the edge, but looking across the valley and being at such a high altitude.
