Hiking to Avalanche Lake in Glacier National Park has become an annual event. The trail is at lower elevations on the west side of the Going to the Sun Road which means the snow melts sooner making it accessible much earlier than trails at higher elevations in the park. As this is one of […]
A recent Sunday afternoon found David, the girls, and I sitting in the truck – in the rain – on Big Mountain. Reluctantly, I waited for the rain to stop with the prospect of hiking the Danny On. When the rain stopped, I put on my pack and followed everyone up the sloppy trail.We were […]
Went hiking and geocaching over the weekend. Instead of using our snowshoes this time, we walked the snowy trail without them. We stayed on the main trail which was fairly well packed by previous hikers, (such as ourselves), and cross country skiers. Snowshoes would have come in handy in a few spots, but we did just fine without them. People were […]
When I looked out of the backdoor this morning, the blizzard was over. Left in its wake was fresh snow and arctic cold. I longed for spring and began to think of Logan Pass. Surely we will go up there as soon as the road is plowed and the pass accessible. It will probably be […]
Before we had our traditional black-eyed peas and cabbage for New Year’s dinner, we took a hike in Glacier. It was about 5 degrees, so we knew to bundle up like the Michelin Man. It was a pretty busy afternoon near Fish Creek and as we headed out onto the trail, a group of gals […]

I first heard about Nude Hiking Day last year […]
Yesterday I told you that M and E had taken their first solo hike together. Today’s post will be what happened on the trail from Mallory’s point of view. Dad said that it was more than likely E and I would get lost. He and Mom had hiked the trail the day before. Before our hike, he elaborated on the […]
M and E took their first solo hike yesterday. The distance wasn’t very far, about 2 miles (they are accustomed to much longer) up the mountain to an overlook in the valley. David and I had gone up there the day before and thought it would be a great place for them to practice hiking […]
It was the same old ocean-like waves in the road heading up to the Jewel Basin. The rough and bumpy ride up the gravel road made the seven miles to Camp Misery seem quite long. It was beautiful weather, so it was a no-brainer that the trailhead parking lot was full. We found a spot, grabbed our packs, and headed off […]
