DAY 5 | Lonesome Dove and Glacier part 2 | ||
We loved this basic wee cabin, It boasts 2 bedrooms! Ian greets you from the "guest suite" or the bird box as we like to call it ..
A beautiful morning to tour our site.
The ranch offers pony treking, we declined the ponies and ventured up the trails on foot. We then sat on our porch in the sun and had a fabulous video chat with Hollie, Kirsty & Sophie, preparing to go "Out, out" the drunken photos we had later certainly seem like they had a great time.
Our final visit to Glacier national park was certainly less chaotic, the majority of traffic leaving the park 3pm plus.
We ventured round the Cedar loop, Ian thought he'd found the Cedar loo!
Cooler during the late afternoon, and missing the vast volume of visitors.
As we headed towards Logans Pass, the grey skies turned black, Ian still insisted he was going to complete the hike, I completed the hike from the comfort of the car. A rather stressful wait as the thunder and lightening rolled in.
Most of the route was well laid out with a boardwalk. Ian reminds me ( again ) it was in fact UPHILL, for approximately 1.2 miles ..My hero.
A break in the rain afforded a glimpse of hidden lake.
The wildlife is well used to visitors and kept only a small distance from Ian.
The most beautiful views greet those who brave the steep climb, and the elements.
A lucky find as we spent more time in the park than expected, everything seems to shut so early here.
The change of outfit comes as Ians t shirt was soaked through, we only had our white water outfits in the car, hence the trendy garb.
Another fab day here in Montana, off on our adventures again tomorrow..
Goodnight dear reader xx
