Not a lot going on the last day or two, just taking care of some things around the motor home. We need to get started on cleaning and polishing the outside before we hit the road in a couple of weeks.
The weather has been ideal with highs in the 80's and lows in the 50's. Certainly much better than the reports we are getting from the mid west.
The photos were taken in Glacier National Park. The first one is of Big Horn Sheep. They had stopped to feed in a stand of evergreen trees and started on up the mountain. Very majestic animals.
The second photo is of the lodge at Logan Pass, elevation 6646'. This is as high as you can go on the Going To The Sun Highway. This is also the place you park and hike on up the mountain to
one of several cabins you can rent for a period of time. I understand they furnish wood for heat and cooking as well as kerosene for light and the rest is up to you. We saw several people putting on their back packs and heading out on the trails for what would be a very interesting experience. Pictures can not describe the beauty of this area.
The third photo is from the Going To The Sun Highway down one of the canyons and you can see, several miles away, the river that is way below you.
The Going To The Sun Highway is a narrow two lane road and the vehicle on the outside has only about a two foot rock wall protecting you from a long fall down the mountain. The other side of the road goes straight up most of the time. They say that the best way to really enjoy this road is to take one of the renovated tour limousines which has a convertible roof that they open so you can see what is above you as well. The size limit on the highway is vehicles not over 20 feet in length. Our full sized van was about as big as you could take. However you go, it is one of the most spectacular drives you will ever make.
