Glacier National Park
Got up early and drove to Glacier NP taking the scenic route. We got to Glacier about 11:00am. Good thing. The campground was already nearly full. We got about the last site that would hold the carbus. We had lunch and then walked to the nearby village to look at things and get information. We learned that our planned drive took at least two hours one way and that the visitor center lot at the summit filled early. The day was sort of cloudy and windy so we decided to stay close to camp and start early tomorrow. Apgar Village and campground are on the western tip of Lake McDonald. If the wind is in the right direction it has the entire length of a very long lake to get up steam. Here is a picture of the lake from neart the campground.
Hare is a little closer view of the distant peaks.
See the mountain face dead center under the white cloud? The road goes right up the side of that mountain.
