Bisons, Elk and Bears...Oh My!

Glacier National Park, Montana is absolutely stunning!  My husband and I had the

pleasure of visiting there and Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming in 2006.

We flew into an airport between the two, rented a car and drove to

Glacier first.  Driving along the 50 mile "Going to the Sun Road" was gorgeous

and a bit nerve wrecking because of the sheer drop-offs!

We went on a few hikes in the three days we were there.

The most memorable was the 10 mile round trip hike to "Iceberg Lake",

which is pictured below the eagle photo.  We saw a brown bear

on the hike, but the photo isn't that great, so I didn't attach it!

This Bison was ambling along the road as we drove by in Yellowstone!

The Elk walked by while we were having a picnic lunch...the

wild life was spectacular!

This waterfall was along one of the hikes we did.

Being a hunter, my husband felt naked without a gun hiking in the wildnerness.

We had some bear mace, but he didn't have much confidence in it.  We

had heard that you should make noise when coming around corners,

so we would sing or clap our hands quite frequently,

and felt quite silly at times!

Hope you have a beary nice day today!!
