Labor Day Park Visit to Glacier - Snow Fix

September 6, 2010
Glacier National Park
Labor Day Park Visit to Glacier

Today started out crisp and clear, so we packed up snacks and dogs and headed for Glacier National Park. I took a few pictures around the campground before we left, though. We didn't have specific things we wanted to see on this, our second visit to Glacier (our first time being years ago on one of our "RV Rental" vacations). We took our time, stopped quite a few times for pictures, and ended up at Logan Pass, the highest point on the Going To The Sun Highway, the primary East-West road through the Park. Being a holiday, there was quite a bit of traffic and many of the overlooks and turnouts were jammed with cars. It's good to see people enjoying Glacier, although they'll likely have to change the name within a decade or so, since all the actual glaciers are almost gone. It's still a beautiful place, though.

And, if all the foliage starting to turn wasn't enough to point us south, we had a nice "snow fix" at Logan Pass.
