This was the first nice day we have had in Conrad since we arrived last week. So off to Glacier National Park for the day. We decided to drive over to West Glacier Entrance and drive up to Avalanche Creek on the "Going-to-the-Sun Road. On the way to the entrance on Hwy 2, we went thru the Blackfeet Indian Reservation and stopped at a great waterfall. I really enjoy waterfalls and this one did not disappoint me. We also stopped at Goat Lick Overlick to hopefully see the Wild Mountain Goats. Well we saw 2 of them on the mountains and several deer crossing the parking lot.
We could only go 16 miles up the " Going-to-the-Sun Road, as it is closed due to SNOW. They had another 2 foot of snow this past weekend on top of the record snowfall and are working to get the road open soon. Once we got into the park we saw Lake McDonald , a beautiful and really large lake and the Lake McDonald waterfall. The views from the overlooks are really breath taking and wish we could have been able to complete the entire drive and see Logan Pass and the other wonderful sites. Oh well a reason to return:))
Another wonderful day!!
