Tom and Donna in Glacier

                         Here are some of our photos.

Donna and I took a boat ride on Lake McDonald with some good narrative                                                             by Sally, the seasonal ranger.           


We are very "full" of ourselves for making the hike to Hidden Lake.


We did finds a nice snow fields...which the park service might call a "glacier".


A well placed rock for a tired hiker.


Donna is trying to hitch a ride up the hill.


Can you think of a more beautiful spot for a coffee and newspaper?
Many Glacier Hotel.


The Great Northern was a major builder of this part of the west.


If you drive 26 mile on a dirt road near the west side of Glacier to Polebridge, you'll get a nice cold beer.


You might also see the northern lights up this far.


Now drive another 24 miles on the same dirt road you find yourself at a now closed border crossing to Canada.


Donna, being a rule breaker, insisted we stick our toes into Canada without the benefit of a passport.
