We took off for Glacier National Park, and we drove the back roads and had a quick and productive stop at Freezout Lake.

After Freezout, we headed towards Browning and Glacier, when we encountered a really good thunderstorm.

We stayed the night at the St. Mary Campground; however, we had to wait for the weather to break before we set up the tent for the evening. No better time for a drink.

July 4th, Independence Day – so what better time to wade chest deep in the middle of a bunch of grebes? There were plenty of Western and Eared Grebes swimming around – definitely a great experience.

On the way back to Bozeman, I decided to drive up to Fairy Lake and do a little off-trail exploring. The results were a soul fulfilling time in an alpine meadow with spectacular views of the Bridger Range.
