Gates of the Mountains hike

Jolie and I paddled up Gates of the Mountains and then hiked cross country to Willow Mtn (at least we thought we had made it to Willow Mtn for a few minutes till we realized it was a bit further away, oh well, there is always next time). Beautiful spring day with lots of wildflowers ... and ticks - sorry no pics of the flowers or tick. This is view from the top with Hauser Lake in the background.

Looking back up towards the top of peak near Willow Mtn that we hiked.

Made a quick trip to Driggs to spray for weeds, got there just in time for this sunset shot

State Track Meet

Aidan completed his high school running career in the 3,200 meter run at the state track meet. He finished in 9:06.91 which was his best time by 15 seconds and broke the Montana state record by about 6 seconds. He finished second to the other runner who beat the state record by about 9 seconds. (photo suppplied)

Spring in Glacier

Jolie and I spent several days in Glacier NP. We were able to ride to Logan Pass on Going to the Sun Road for second straight year. Ride up was nice and sunny, but the ride down had a bit of rain in it.

Not a great shot, but we saw this black bear near the campground we were staying at.

Nicest weather day of the trip we paddled on Lake McDonald - this is the view looking up towards Logan Pass
