Oct 19, Fly Home from Glacier 2024, home

Apple Watch fitness app next to trailhead sign — Another 10-miler. Never gets old. This time we stayed (really long) for lunch.

unique clouds — We make many stops when it’s easy to park. Parking is easy today.

roadside sign — This place is also the name of a favorite GNP restaurant at Rising Sun Motor Inn and Cabins, just a few miles west.

mountains — Arguably, one of our Earth’s coolest drives.

honeymoon couple next to roadside sign — Silly. We sent this to our Son. Ps. We have an ATT signal here.

rock way supporting mountain road — The rock work is remarkable. Unnoticed by most, but definitely noticed by folks like us (whatever that means).

In a (perfect) dream world, i’d (we’d) walk 10 miles every day.

Day 14 CCL, home

hurricane forecast map — Like every September in Glacier, we keep an eye on the tropics (and home).

Going-to-the-Sun Road (GTTSR) is 50 miles long.

GTTSR’s speed limit ranges from 25-45 mph.

It’s reasonable to expect to drive behind someone who is drinking in the breathtaking scenery. And it’s additionally reasonable to expect they will drive decently below the speed limit.

Driving ‘Sun Road’, as many locals (and now, myself) call it is a great place to never be in a hurry.

Like i always say, “i’m always busy, but i’m never in a hurry.”

Day 13 CCL, home

Drew Landry and Halladay Quist.

Keegan, Glacier Park Lodge GM, invited us a couple weeks ago. He said it was a closing night benefit event for the Blackfeet.

As we got closer to the date, i knew we wouldn’t be up for a dark-mountain drive afterwards. Nor did i want to pay for two room reservations and only stay in one room. We have already done that the six nights we stayed in Granite and Sperry. Reached out to Keegan with a proposal, but he beat me to the punch — he comped a room for us for their last night of the season.

Humbled. Grateful. Honored.
