Sunday fun day! This is our set up. Thought I would take some pictures of the RV park. Here they are!
The park is big but you would never know it. Our site was very private. Several roads wound around the park. We never explored it all. We might have gotten lost.The office and small store.
We headed up to Lake McDonald again to find a place to hike. Safety in numbers! The more people the less bears maybe?
Mike had to return a shirt he bought first!
We decided this trail looked like a good one. It was right across from the hotel. 6 miles up to the top. We decided from the start we were not walking 6 miles up.
Everything you read about hiking says to take bear spray on any trail, so we did. We didn't have to use it thankfully.
Muscle man Mike!
We met some trail riders going the opposite way. Down.
A nice little creek.
This is Lake McDonald! Well, a small part of a very large lake.
Upward we go. Doesn't look like it was uphill but it was!
We sat down for a rest and met Stacy. He said he was going to work hiking up the trail. What? Well, there is a chalet at the top of the trail and it burned down. The rebuilding had started and the roof was rebuilt and anything else that burned. Much of it was stone. Stacy was working on the stone part of the chalet. Making any repairs needed. It has several rooms that hikers can rent. The deal is you have to hike up 6 miles to get to it. It hasn't reopened yet. He showed us some pictures of the chalet. Beautiful place for sure!
I took this picture because it marked one mile up. We hiked up a little more and then turned around.
Down we go! So much easier!
Who lives here?
We finished off our visit to the park with a picture to prove we were at Glacier National Park!
And then another date night with Mike! He knows all the best places.
Actually, the food and the service was great. Very friendly people. Mike had fun watching all the locals.
These dollar bills were all over the restaurant. They all had names or messages on them.
Dart board of course.These are all pool trophies. I didn't get a picture of the pool tables.
Well, that sums it up for Sunday. Hiking and eating at the local joint. I really like hiking!
