Sunday July 25, 2010 Glacier nat park.
I knew it would be good but Oh God I wasn't prepared for this. The places I've been & things seen are many & varied... but this will take me some time to gain composure. After a few days... it's beyond my capacity for a description. Maybe even pics can't capture it. For now my soul has been hijacked into the abyss of the sublime nature of Glacier.
Glacier Nat pk IS THE Crown of the Continent!
Looped around the south of the park on Hwy 2. East Glacier and Two Medicine(separate posts) to stay a night at St Marys, MT. Up early & ready to go. No better way to spend a birthday than drive the Going to the Sun Road. East to West ... w/ the sun. sun behind you is great visibility & no glare. When there i s time... no I can't really describe it.. Pics can't describe it. Elevs 9,600+
On into the afternoon followed the stream down to Lake McDonald -- that's the modern name of the lake. Waded in the stream and stood on the ground that The Kootenai, The Salish, The Penne di Orille... The Flathead tribe.... was named "Place where they dance". It's where ceremonial dance was given to the Kootenai during the 1st winter on earth.
The Flathead, The Blackfeet, ... all the tribes of the area regard Glacier as their home since time began and treat it as their home. Their creed is "May you always respect the land you walk on".
when there's time... will describe better.
You never drink twice from the same stream.
