Drove 30 miles North and entered Glacier National Park at the West Glacier entrance around 8:30 AM. Drove the famous 51 mile Going-to-the-Sun Road through the middle of the Park. The whole 51 mile drive only opened yesterday due to cleaning snow off of the higher elevation roads. They said it will probably close for the year again in September due to high elevation snowfall. What an unbelievably fantastic drive that the pictures can’t come close to doing justice to.
Stopped at the Rising Sun Lodge in the Park for a late lunch. I had the Lamb Burger with Feta and Nancy had Roast Beef. Then after leaving the Park on the East Entrance made a long drive back to the hotel around the whole Southern edge of Glacier National Park with some added great views. Had to stop on way to hotel and split a piece of Huckleberry (Mountain Blueberry) Pie ala mode with Huckleberry Ice Cream. (very good)
