Glacier International Peace Park 6/10

The ride from Missoula was snowy and rainy, so we took our time. We stopped at Nine Pipes Museum in Montana, near Kalispell. We learned about Native American history in the area.
We got to camp where it was raining, so we set up a tarp village to put the tents and cooking area under. The next day, we went to Lake McDonald to check out the hike we might do. Because of the weather, we decided to leave Glacier a day early. The park is beautiful, but there is nothing much to do in the rain. Our Junior Polar Bear Club members Keith, Nerney, Kayla, Tori, and Brian jumped into the cold Lake on our way out.
We headed near Bozeman, Montana to camp. The morale of the group was lifted due to the sunshine and green grass. We did a small hike the following day to learn about the local geology. The town is very proud Lewis, Clark, and Sacagawea had stayed in this area and ventured down the Missouri River.
We have a hotel in Sheridan, Wyoming before our last national park in the Rocky Mountains.

Prof. C and I look forward to your return. It has been fun to read about your adventures. Did my tent survive the wind storm? (No worries if it didn’t.)

Oh my gosh! We completely forgot!!!!!!!!!

What a rough time we have had of it. Look for photos and videos if we can figure out how to get them up. Kayla is helping us out a lot! The one doing the blog went with Michael to Costa Rica!!! Have to go!

your tent is/was the favorite! It survived while others totally blew apart and fell apart in our storms!
