It’s been a long time, Grinnell. You had me at ‘Hello’.
A hike up to Grinnell Glacier on a perfect morning with a couple of Buckeyes.

And miles to go before I sleep. If Robert Frost hiked Glacier Park.
This was a personal best (well, for Glacier). Almost 25 miles in just over 10 hours with a grinding gain/loss of 4,400 feet. This is why I work for $12 an hour.
Cloud Walker meets Rising Wolf. This love was like bad medicine.
Climbing Rising Wolf Mtn in the Two Medicine area. Long ridge ascent, horrible bushwhack descent thru an un-scouted drainage. And a good bear scare.
The monster of Cutbank: Mt James. Unexpected. Amazing. Just a fun day at high elevation.
A nice little walkup in the Cutbank area. As though anything with 4000′ of gain over 20 miles is really just a walk up.
East Flattop and the endless ridge walk in the sky.
A grueling twenty mile, mostly off trail, experience. The mind sometimes leads the body to poor choices.
The odd day off. Keeping it simple.
Waterfalls everywhere. Buy why be bear bait when you don’t have to? At the end of the day, all roads lead to Sun Point.

Time and place is the name of the game where you are doing seasonal work at Glacier Park for a couple of months.
I can sure think of worst places to write about nothing.
A blogger’s dream (at least mine) is to have wonderful locations and backdrops when composing narratives. Here are some of my most immersive. But it’s Glacier. How can I go wrong?
Ah, Piegan. You always make me smile. Don’t go changing.
Dave loves climbing his mountains in Glacier almost as much as he hates marmots. Evil, vile, nasty creatures.
No blue in the sky. No green in the khakis. Just ring around the collar for a hard day’s work.
What happens when there are no views on a Red Bus Tour? You hope there is a guy with a bladder problem.
