Glacier National Park: Day 4

Last day! And I didn't take nearly as many pictures on this one, so you can breathe easy knowing you won't have to surf through 90 photos. That's seriously how many I uploaded yesterday. Well, a little more...it was like 93. Sorry! On the last day we took a crazy hike. It was crazy in that we walked through part of the park that had burned down like 5 years ago or something so there was no shade, it was uphill almost the entire way (and not like a slight grade-we're talking between 30 and 45 degrees), we didn't bring enough water, and the end kept eluding us. Seriously. Every time we got to a point where the trail should have gone around the mountain, it abruptly switched back. Every time I thought we were close to the top more rock would appear. It never ended. We only got halfway there before we had to turn around. The water felt excellent after that hike.

Glacier National Park: Day 3

On our third day our main event was a hike to Avalanche Lake. It was beautiful. I assume it's even better in the springtime; when we went there were 4 waterfalls flowing. I know there are at least 7 that flow during the right season because of the trails left in the rock. Anyway, the hike itself had lots of fun stopping points where we hung out and I took more pictures. I hope you enjoy them, and I really hope you get to take the hike someday. It was only like 5 miles round trip, so it's not terribly difficult. You can do it!

 These don't count as animals b/c you can't see the spiders, so I'm safe.

The wind came up through the valley and blew all these trees over.
