Glacier National Park!

Thank you so much to Angele and Diane and John and Erica and Kris for their recent donations to my Hike-a-thon  this August. 

The Pacific Northwest Trail goes from Glacier National Park to Olympic National Park, so I took Ryan to the trail head in Glacier National Park. We took some time to do some hikes together in the park before he started his long distance trail. 

Hidden Lake Trail in Glacier NP

We could not go all the way down to Hidden Lake because of bear activity in the area.

That is Hidden Lake behind me in the distance

The buses in Glacier are the BEST

Ryan's gear explodes all over the hotel room!

I saw massive herds of Buffalo on the way back to Kalispell This photo does not do it justice.

I will be participating in the WTA Hike-a-thon during the entire month of August. Ryan will be hiking the Pacific Northwest Trail from Montana (Glacier National Park) all the way to the Pacific Ocean on the Olympic Peninsula and I will be joining him for a few days and also doing day hikes around Seattle on layovers.

I hope I can count on all of  you guys again this year for support. Any amount from $1 to $100 is welcome.
