Glacier Park - Day 1


From Yellowstone, drove north on Rt. 15, staying at Great Falls, Mt. before stopping at Shelby, near Glacier National Park. Decided to take the Jeep on the "Going-to-the-Sun" road, which bisects the park east-to-west. This picture is at the lodge in St. Mary's near the eastern end of the road.








These pix show the range of the scenery in these mountains - similar to
but "craggier" than the mountains in Vail, Co.


Every time we turned a corner, there was another chance for a post card photo. There was a lot of traffic on the road (Saturday), and many of the pull offs were packed.

The pictures we did get only hint at the gorgeous majesty of these mountains.



More to come on our second day there.
