Legit wilderness rush lasted all day

Grinnell Glacier Hike — It was an exciting, and unexpected, encounter.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — We backed pretty far away before we got our cameras out. The zoom makes it look closer than it was.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — All of us frozen until we could determine it was safe to proceed.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Decent distance away considering we had rounded the rock corner where the Ram is standing.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Is it safe? What do we do if it charges?

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Majestic. Powerful. Home field advantage.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — So yeah, we originally rounded this bend and the Ram was right in front of us.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Back to the ascent.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Just keep climbing.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — The Ram (and two others) opted to travel below the trail, allowing us to pass safely.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Looking back…far left lake is where we began the hike.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Stunning geology.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — FYI.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — At 3.5 miles one way and 1,800′ elevation gain, it wasn’t a difficult hike. Almost there.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Used to be ocean bottom.

Grinnell Glacier Hike — Starting to sense something uniquely special. Nearing the trail’s end, and Grinnell Glacier’s first sighting.

Hikers are constantly advising hikers in the opposite direction what lies ahead.

“Hey, we saw three Mountain Goats about 300 yards down from the trail, near the waterfall.”

We joked that unless we can pet them, it probably wouldn’t excite us.

You quickly get spoiled when you have super close encounters with the bigger animals.

Grinnell Glacier has receded and will be gone by 2030 (estimated).

Working hard to control the controllables

Travel notes on post it — Yesterday afternoon. When i checked in for the flights, my plan got derailed, but i was assured it would be fine.

Working hard to control the controllables.

Even though my plans got derailed (or so i thought), i decided (reluctantly) to accept what was going to unfold and make the best of it.

As “luck” would happen, seating for today’s trip to Glacier is happening just the way i planned.

It was a nice treat.

Grow up or play like you mean?

Disney Legacy Award speaker — Walt dreamed, created, and inspired.

You’re dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway. – Walt Disney

Life will constantly whisper in your ear, “Grow up.” Be mindful, but don’t drink the cool-aid if you know what i mean. Play like you mean it.
