Glacier National Park (Day 2)

The plan - out by 7:30, catch the morning sun going west, hang in West Glacier Psark and catch the evening sun back.

Wild Goose Island in Saint Mary Lake

The reality - out by 8:30ish, with a picnic lunchish, with the dog comfortablish in the back seat of the VW Beetle.  Within five minutes we see a timber wolf hanging by the side of the road...this is going to be an awesome day.  Half an hour later with several just incredible viewpoints (there is just no reason to take pictures, cause you will never understand the majesty of these mountains from anything digital) we arrive at Logan Pass.  There are several trails, but they are all covered with snow.  I tried walking on one and fell right on my....rhymes with Logan Pass.  The road is narrow with outcrops of rocks all the way...so much better in a compact car than an RV, even if they were allowed.     Fifty miles later, we are in Apgar, the western edge of the park.  I get a latté and Deb gets a Huckleberry Shake, both are delicious.  We stop by the lake for a super quick lunch.  Deb has offered to drive back, she says she will take it slow, but Mario Andretti watch out,  she takes the Going-to-the -Sun like a NASCAR driver.

Beargrass - unique alpine flower, blooms every 5 - 10 years

Back at the campsite by 2:00, we rest and prepare for day 3.
