On the Highline Trail, looking up toward Logan Pass. Going to the Sun Road is in the middle. Where the two almost converge is the start of the Highline Trail.

Yowsers. :cool:
What she said! How fun! I love the "Bullwinkle" pictures.
Wow! Looks like a great trip. :)
Wow! Wow! Wow! Did I say, "Wow?" If not, WOW!!!
I checked out your website photos, and have to say I loved the Crater Lake photos. That looks like one beautiful ride.
Loved all the goats in your Glacier National Park photos. :p
Looks like you and Thom had a wondeful time. Congrats! :)
OH MY!!!! WONDERFUL!!!! I miss that place so much...I had a summer job there managing the campstore at Lake McDonald. Neatest experience in my life! There was a gal who worked for me, her and her husband were retired & empty nesters so they would do various things together or apart (she was a loner that summer)
We did a nude midnight full moon ride down going to the sun road on summer night...I was shuttle driver (no matter what time of the year...that place is chili at dark!!!)....geez...the stories I could tell!!!
I just can't wait to retire to go back and get a summer job again...meanwhile I must get my husband there to see it!!!
Thanks for sharing and bringing back such great memories...going to find my old pics now!
Beautiful pictures! My friend and her husband were there last week and she's been posting pictures of her trip so I feel like I got to travel along with them. It is such an amazing place.
You take the BEST vacations...

Very nice!
Wow, what a great adventure trip. It was thrilling just enjoying your story and pictures. My dh and I went to Glacier a few years ago for a family reunion, not much time for adventures and sight seeing. A cyclist descending "going to the sun road" in the moonlight was killed while we were there.
Great pics. A former member of my book group is a ranger in Glacier and she's never sent back pictures as nice as yours! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! We take so many photos and really work at culling them down to have just the best on the web. For example we also saw a mama moose and her calf. It was at twilight and they were in a lake and eating. I didn't take any pictures of them at all. They were just too far away for my camera and it was too dark. Even with the extender on Thom's 400 mm (making it about a 620), his photos weren't great. The animals were fuzzy because it was such a long exposure and kind of looked like donkeys. :)Quote:

Our first day in Moab we had an awesome rain storm that produced a double rainbow over Castle Valley. Neither of us had our cameras as we were coming back from dinner. By the time we got to the room, the rainbows were disappearing. Those photos didn't make the cut either.

Sometimes being a little farther away from a moose is OK, especially with a baby! On a vacation a few years ago, camping in the backcountry, I got some very close-up photos of a moose because it came rather aggressively through camp!Quote:
