WRAP UP GLACIER NATIONAL PARK We are ready to see

WRAP UP
GLACIER NATIONAL PARK

We are ready to see more national parks, even though half of the humans in our group aren’t in love with hiking.

Have you felt your own personal transformation while in a national park?

Being in such beauty has the power to awaken our senses, deepen our understanding of the natural world, and inspire us to become better stewards of the environment.

Here are some last photos because I didn’t get any of the big horned sheep in the other posts and I didn’t want to leave anyone hanging.

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK
Nature has the ability to heal and restore. The national parks provide spaces for introspection, where we can reconnect with our inner selves and find solace in the embrace of the wilderness.

I loved taking photos of the wildflowers and could have spent way more time crouching down looking at the beauty.

The park offers almost 1000 species of wildflowers!

I really loved the flowers alongside the trail as we hiked Logan Pass. First, there was a sea of yellow then suddenly, the flowers changed to purple. A tiny microclimate that completely shifted the environment.

These little wildflowers offer us lessons in resilience, adaptability, and the interconnectedness of all living things. I just love them all.

Photos:
White/yellow - ox eye daisy
Purplish/blue - alpine forget-me-not
White - bear grass
Purple star-like - cornflower
Green leafy - false hellebore
White/yellow - alpine pasqueflower
Caterpillar nest - just so cool

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK MISC. PICTURES TO SHARE BECA

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK
MISC. PICTURES TO SHARE BECAUSE THEY’RE GORGEOUS

As I’ve mentioned before, Aaron and I were utterly impressed by the entire park. The nature is absolutely out of this world.

And while I am not one to marvel over too many human-made things, especially when surrounded by gorgeous natural beauty, the Going-To-The-Sun-Road is pretty spectacular.

Here are some facts about this road:
* It was the first road to be designated both a National Historic Landmark and a National Civil Engineering Landmark.

* Glacier National Park was established by Congress on May 11, 1910. Congress provided the first appropriation to construct the road in 1921 and plans started to connect both sides of the park with an intention to blend the road with the surrounding environment.

* A team of 32+ men often climbed 3,000 feet each morning to get to survey sites, walking along narrow ledges and hanging over cliffs by ropes to take many of the measurements.

* Construction difficulties included sheer cliffs, short seasons without intense weather, 60-foot snowdrifts and tons of solid rock made road building across the Continental Divide a unique challenge.

* Going-to-the-Sun Road was completed on July 15, 1933, after more than two decades of planning and construction.

I have no doubt that the native people who lived there for hundreds of years before were fairly surprised and disappointed that these lighter-skinned people came and brought their diseases and “progress.”

My heart still hurts for the impact on their lives when this region of the world was “discovered” by those moving in from the East.

Driving in the park made me feel like I was inside a cathedral of nature and we were all just tiny specks of dust, taking in all the beauty.

DAY FOUR WATERSLIDE PARK & ALPINE SLIDES The girls

DAY FOUR
WATERSLIDE PARK & ALPINE SLIDES
The girls were thrilled to be done with hiking and pivot to a different activity. We balanced the days of hiking with a few hours of fun at a local waterslide park.
Before the waterslides we enjoyed hurling ourselves down the Big Mountain in little cars that raced down small tracks. At one point, a chipmunk found itself on the track and had no way to get off without human support. Poor little cutie!
The area around Glacier National Park has a lot of cool attractions to keep everyone happy.
