Grinnell Point, right. Many Glacier Hotel, foreground. Continental Divide is everything left of Grinnell Point. The discerning eye can find Bishops Cap eastern profile.

The higher you climb

mountains
There are several ways to get here. Lunch Creek. Highline Trail (no one does it), although some descend to Highline. Piegan Pass to the Pollock-Piegan saddle (lots of mileage). All have thousands of feet of vertical ascent and descent.

The view from Bishops Cap high atop the Garden Wall (aka the Continental Divide). Thank you Steve and Stacy.

The higher you climb, the farther you reach.

Deep.

Or, high.

Or…

Both.

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.

Just a photo, work

mountaintop fire watch tower
Swiftcurrent Firetower. Best view of Glacier and the easiest to access. And when i say easiest, the easiest from waking up at Granite Park Chalet. Otherwise, it’s hard.

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.
