We had the privilege of driving and hiking in Glacier National Park in NW Montana several days ago. There were plenty of majestic, snow-capped mountains to behold, but sadly, we learned from the park rangers that only 25 glaciers remain due to climate change (down from 150 a little over a hundred years ago). We could only see one -- Jackson Glacier. We had a blast hiking up through snow along a trail to Hidden Lake. Gorgeous blue. We hung out with a couple mountain goats while eating a picnic lunch (of yet another PB&J). The kids and Reid (the big kid) slid down the mountain in the snow. We spent 2 nights in a historic, western style hotel in Kalispell, Montana.
