Heading for Glacier

Our 2013 Summer trip is taking us across Western Montana and into Glacier National Park. We started out with the drive into Billings and the next day was for shopping! Gotta fit it in anywhere I can :) and I love to shop in Billings!  We took off for the drive over the Beartooth Pass as we became interested in it this spring when we came to Red Lodge to ski. It was beautiful and provided lots of interesting sights like summer ski lifts that were open and lots of snow. The pass dumped us right into Yellowstone National Park so we stopped for  the night. We spent the day today watching geysers, hiking and seeing wildlife. We all got plenty of sunshine and are pretty ready for bed tonight!

Snow!

This was at the top of the ski hill. Alex and Mark were sad they didn't bring their equipment.

The waterfalls are amazing. This one was just along the road.

Alex found a great new place to keep his brother one of the campgrounds.
