pictures from the last couple of days in glacier national park

ready to depart in the morning from our random camp site about 80 miles from spokane

after riding all day we arrived outside of whitefish, montana and this was another random campsite we found off the road - that's whitefish lake in the background

  3. Those grizzlies pictures are amazing!

    Sorry your ride got cut short - please take another adventure immediately so that we desk jockies can live vicariously.
