More Photos

Post by parafireboy » Sun Jul 31, 2016 11:33 pm

Some photos from today. One of my favorite things to do when here is to get up before sunrise and head into the areas of the park where the wildlife are more likely to be found. It's also nice being out before the crowds when the wilderness is quiet. This morning I saw bighorn sheep and elk on my way up to Logan Pass. Most of my good photos are on my good camera, so those will have to wait until I get home and can download them, but I took some with my phone so I could get some up here right away. Yesterday evening I saw three different grizzly bear also, but those photos are all on my camera and will have to wait a few days. Today there were mountain goats that made an appearance too. I love this place!

My last full day here in Glacier National Park, tomorrow I pack up in the morning and drive home. This morning was pretty cool, with one grizzly bear crossing the road right in front of me as I headed up to Logan Pass bright and early, and also having the opportunity to watch a couple of bighorn sheep butt heads up at Logan Pass.

Here's a few pics from today (the ones that I could get on my phone at least). Once I get home and get the good pics downloaded off of the camera I'll post some more.

Brother, I have looked at these pics almost every day. Lol. We are going to Yellow Stone between the Hamilton and Missoula shows, then going to Glacier after Missoula. Will be there the last week of September. Should be good and chili at night. On our way back across to Virginia we are going to Mount Rushmore then stopping in the Twin Cities. Of course, as we cut across SD we will be stopping at Wall Drug Store. Lol.
