Edgwater/Glacier 2

We took another trip to Glacier since we wanted to have some time at Logan Pass. So we just drove to the pass without stopping at any of the overviews since we did most of them on the last trip. Logan Pass parking lot is usually full by 10:30. We arrived early enough that there was plenty of parking. We took a little walk to some of the snow that was still left on the trails.

Along the way we again were reminded that you can't fix stupid. The picture below is about 1/4 mile after the loop in the Going To The Sun road. Well after the signs that state that vehicles over 21 feet should turn around. Either this guy couldn't read, couldn't comprehend, doesn't know what 21 fee is, ...
We didn't return the same route so I don't know if he got turned arround or not.

 As the following pictures show we spent some time at the Pass and just walked and relaxed.

 It has been a few years since we had stood on snow or made a snowball so that was quite a treat. Nothing like sun, shorts and snow.

Our next stop was Many Glacier to see the lake and hotel. When we arrived and were parked we decided to have our lunch. While eating I saw 2 couples come over the steps from the hotel. That looks like Ken I said. Ken who asked Suzette. From Sun-N-Fun, Faver. Can't be she said. When he passed I saw that his shirt had Siesta Key on the back, "Is that Ken" I asked. His head quickly turned and his wife Karen shouted. Yep is was them and another couple that we had played pickleball with Gary and his wife. Sorry but I don't remember Gary's last name. We had a nice visit and found that they were staying at Apgar. I gave Ken some information on the road work on 89 as we parted ways.

Time to visit the hotel. Very Impressive. I didn't take any inside pictures since I didn't figure I could do it justice. You can read more about the hotel and see pictures here.

We took a drive to the campground and ranger station. We toured the campground and think there are a few slots we could fit in but we don't think we will make that tirp in our Motorhome.

On the return trip we left 89 where it junctions with MT49. Length limit 24 feet. No problem for the jeep. Paved but rough in places however it was a nice drive and brought us to the village of East Glacier. We stopped at the train station to see what appeared to be a little museum but there was no one there. We Continued on to West Glacier and stopped at the depot there for a break. Then it was on home to Edgewater.
