Glacier’s greatest hits

Mountains from a distance
Where the Great Plains meet the Continental Divide. Along the highway from Browning to Babb. Left horizon is Reynolds Mountain. Center is Going-to-the-Sun Mountain.

Glacier’s greatest hits.

Of course, trails, hikes, overlooks, etc.

Also, certain regions: Swiftcurrent, Many Glacier, St Mary, Two Med, Rising Sun, Logan Pass.

Thank you for the memory

18-second video: Humor, anywhere, is under-estimated.
27-second video:

The closest momma and cubs encounter ever.

This ranks up there with:

  1. The late September Grizzly encounter as we descended Piegan Pass.
  2. The momma and three cubs swimming out to a small iceberg at Grinnell Glacier.
  3. The Granite Park Chalet water station encounter where i abandoned everything i ever studied/learned (since 1973) about Grizzly encounters.

Let’s head to the humans

31-second video: Now we know. Cool.

Truer words could not be spoken this day. You hear me at the video’s end saying, “Man, what a treat.”

Random 2025 Glacier video, home

36-second video: For the first time, we see a second bear.

We assumed, hopefully, we’d eventually see two cubs. Seeing the first, its size wasn’t cute and cuddly ‘first-summer cub’ size. This second summer cub is nearing adult size.

Note: Couldn’t wait to tell the Ranger at the Chalet there are two sets of Grizzlies. Turned out we were the first to report all summer on the new, bigger-sized set. And, we have yet to spot the third Grizzly.

Back to Glacier, home

20-second video: As far as anyone could safely go.
35-second video: On our descent. East-side tunnel by The Loop.
25-second video: Descent is officially over as we round the McDonald Creek curve (as i call it) and now it’s six miles of mostly flat road.

Live and learn.

Have fun.

.think .differently

Lean into discomfort.

Ps. Happy present moment.
