East Glacier day 1, spirit

Long stretch of highway where Great Plains meet the Rockies
Heading West into Browning, MT. Glacier is the distant bumpy horizon.

If you know you know.

If you don’t know, that’s perfectly fine.

St Mary, day 7, spirit

Small rustic country stage for a band
It’s a ‘regional hangout’ for Glacier National Park Summer workers.
15-second video: Kip’s Beer Garden featured live bands and karaoke nights a couple times a week. It’s ungodly loud if you’re trying to sleep in the area because there’s no enclosure, it’s open air. We get a decent buffer being on the West side of the West Motel. There are East facing rooms too. Not sure how those Guests sleep at night.

Basically, the front desk staff said people on the East side of West Motel always complain about Kips’ noise.

Grateful for internationally staying on the West side.

When it’s challenging to explain to another what you see, maybe your best option is to show them a photo.

St Mary, day 5, spirit

two seniors at Glacier National Park's Wild Goose Island
Iconic Wild Goose Island is always a stop in both directions. Daily.

The mountains receive sunrises and sunsets.

For either side of four billion years.

Incomprehensible.

Wonderful.

St Mary, day 4, spirit

One story, Motor Inn by Glacier National Park
Sign says St Mary Lodge & Resort. To the left, across Going-to-the-Sun Road is West Motel. Our White Mini-Van is parked under the sign.

Glacier mysteries.

The humans who’ve walked this space…

We know so little.

Glacier became a National Park in 1910.

The 50-mile iconic Going-to-the-Sun Road was completed in 1932.

Less than 100 years of Glacier Park history.

Contrasted with 4-Billion years of geological existence.
