I have a ton of photos from this trip. The scenery was just amazing every where we looked. This park deserves a week to begin to investigate it all. I must go back for a third trip someday. Truly a beautiful spot on the planet.
We stayed at the Belton Chalet. The first lodge built before they even started the park. It was so charming and I was so exhausted I didn't even think to take a picture. Check out the website if you want. Click Here The food was amazing too!

A part of the world I never saw and what a gorgeous part it is! You give a whole new definition to "family reunions" when you meet a place like you all did. The photography is amazing! Thank you for sharing your family with us.
It looks like a great 'cousin reunion' in the most beautiful of places!
What a fun gathering of cousins. Beautiful pictures of your travels and how unfortunate that you didn't get out at Logan's Pass. ;D
Just teasing...
Breath taking and thanks for the trip. The view from your sisters house is something too.
Now why did the ladies not go up the glacier I ask?
Wonderful to have close family like that and you do all look as if you are having fun.
Jet lag within your own country. I guess you live far enough away from each other on different sides of the continent.
Looking forward to more of the photos.

Good questions Barbara. It is an all day affair to fly cross country and we loose or gain 3 hours in time zones.
The ladies all stopped at the first sign of snow because they had on sandals. I went over three snow banks and then when I saw the large snow field, I was almost willing to get my feet wet, but I knew the traction would be awful and I didn't want to go splat. Lots of folks were using ski poles and hiking gear. It was up a mountain =) We were not obviously prepared. The snow is usually gone in August up there!
We are having such a good time!
And what a time we had,there's nothing like family. We had a whirlwind of activity along with late nights and early mornings. Besides all the Montana sites, we then gathered back at Cindy's (WA)for more fun...wine tasting, need I say more...more posts to come of this amazing week!
