We've entered Montana through an Indian reservation of the Blackfoot tribe. Lots of tepees in every backyard and horses. As we continued we saw lots of agriculture - endless hey fields and farms. We arrived at Glacier National Park, which has the same name as the Canadian one. We spent 2 nights in the park at "Two Medicine" campground. We found this campground very unique for the people that camp there. It's people that go there every summer, year after year for over 10 years. They know all the rangers and participate in the activities they offer. The view from our campsite was beautiful. This is what it looks like in the morning.
We took a boat ride on the nearby lake (in the above picture) and then hiked to Twin Falls. On the way back we decided to hike 8Km instead of taking the boat. There are bear warnings everywhere and to be honest, it's quite frightening.
We couldn't stop eating huckleberries and thimble berries all the way and we also picked some for dinner's salad. As we got back to the rv, we saw a bear again, walking on the mountain, having, just like us, berries for dinner. The bear was less than 1Km away from our rv. Challenge - find the bear in the picture
Another nice hike we took was to St. Mary Falls, Where the kids were working on their booklets to become junior rangers.
Later on, they gave oath with a ranger and earned a badge.
Finally, to all of my skeptical friends, wherever they are, this is me in hiking boots
And look - NO SWEAT WHATSOEVER!

Hugs from a rainy and fresh Shanghai! Augusta
Weren't you the one that had the surgery to remove the sweat glands? I'm just kidding - the pictures are great and what a view to wake up to in the morning!! Jim and I had no problem spotting the bear - and you were lucky to not see him "up close" while hiking!
So exciting with the bear! How do you have nerves to hike when there are bears around???
And I'm not blonder than I understand that the photo was taken BEFORE you startet sweating!!
Spring in POA - I'm off to buy a new sofa upstairs. Wanna come and have a caipirinha??
Are you eaten by bears or are you out of network??
It's a looooong time since Sunday now!!
