Glacier National Park
Glacier National Park, established as a park in 1910, is located in northern Montana, and features waterfalls, lakes of turquoise, glaciers, deep forests, alpine meadows, and mountain ranges carved by prehistoric rivers of ice.
On June 11th Dana and I drove the Going to the Sun Road, but due to the previous snowfall the week before the road was only open as far as Avalanche. It was a rainy, misty day, giving way to sunshine.
