Glacier N.P. definitely lived up to the hype. Someone said that after Glacier, we would throw rocks at Yellowstone. Well boohoo at throwing rocks. They are both very majestic in their own way. Glacier's majesty resided in big, epic mountains, ubiquitos waterfalls, and clear, cold lakes and streams. We took gobs of pictures and had a real difficult time selecting the ones below. The goats, sheep, marmots, pique, wolverines, and rangers were of the friendliest variety. It's funny how national parks do that. In fact, there seems to a completely friendly ethos in national parks as a rule. At every campsite we made new friends and shared stories. Rachel even hitch-hiked w/ much success on our "alone" day (a new relationship maintenance idea we've introduced). The only bummer about the experience was not seeing any bears. Although, we almost got a ticket for leaving carrots on our table in an effort to attract some.
