Starting our drive (53 miles each way) along the "Going-To-The-Sun Road." This is St. Mary Lake.
|
Goose Island on St. Mary Lake. There are kayakers in front of the island.
|
This picture shows the road that we've been driving on. It goes straight through the park and over the Continental Divide.
|
We will eventually make it to the valley below. You can see McDonald Creek.
|
I took this while driving. I just couldn't get over how incredible the scenery was.
|
|
SO glad we didn't have to canoe this!!!
|
|
Lake McDonald.
|
McDonald Falls.
|
Tried to get that waterfall in the background.
|
One of the tunnels we went through.
|
The Continental Divide!
|
...but not as long as that one in the distance. It is almost 500 feet in length!
|
Paul stopped... I jumped out and took this picture while on the road...
|
I'm hanging outside the window when I took this picture. Just over the wall is Mt. Gould which sits above Grinnell Glacier.
|
|
Notice this waterfall cutting through the snow... I love this shot!
|
|
Goose Island. It looks so small compared to everything else around it.
|
Hiking... and swatting a ton of mosquitos!
|
|
Don't jump!
|
There wasn't a lot of space here... obviously!
|
Too bad we didn't get to see the real thing!
