  • Two Medicine Lake & Upper Two Medicine Lake

    Two Medicine Lake & Upper Two Medicine Lake

    Two Medicine Lake is a fantastically beautiful lake located on the east side of Glacier National Park. This is a walk along the trail that goes around Two Medicine Lake taking little spurs that include Upper Two Medicine, Twin Falls, Paradise Point and Aster Park. You get quite a bit of variety on this hike…

  • Otokomi Lake

    Otokomi Lake

    Starting at Rising Sun in the St. Mary Valley and following Rose Creek for a little over 5 miles, you’ll end up at Otokomi Lake. It’s a beautiful lake nestled at the base of Goat Mountain. Early in the season, the waterfalls coming into the lake are beautiful and Rose Creek is cascading with some…

  • Crossing the Finish Line

    I did it. It’s pretty surreal right now and definitely hasn’t sunk in that I’m all done with the hiking part of my project. Of course when I say, “I did it”, it’s very very misleading. There is no way you can accomplish any larger goal without support from others from vehicle shuttles, joining hikes,…

  • Last Trip!!

  • Crossing 600

    I’m soooo close now! I finally crossed 600 and am super thankful for the great weather. I got a bit of snow going up to Swiftcurrent Lookout and over Swiftcurrent Pass down to Many Glacier and then back up, but that’s the exception. Thanks for all of your kind words and prayers along the way.…

On this particular trip, I saw mountain goats, a moose and a bear in addition to many birds, flowers and small mammals such…

  • Elk Mountain

    Elk Mountain

    Formerly an old lookout, Elk Mountain is a short but formidable hike. You start out at an out of the way trailhead a few miles shy of Marias Pass on the west side in an area called Snowslip. After a short 1.2 a mile walk where you cross some train tracks, you encounter the cutoff…

  • South Shore St. Mary Lake

    South Shore St. Mary Lake

    Started at the Red Eagle trailhead and wandered through the old burn area of St. Mary filled with silver trees, wildflowers and birds. Finally dropped down by the lake amongst the trees and walked along it soaking up fantastic views. All of this culminated to Virginia Falls and St. Mary Falls at the head of…

  • East Side

    Spending some time over on the East Side of the mountains to knock off a bunch of hikes. Unfortunately, the internet is super slow, so bear with me on releasing videos. In the meantime, I’m able to trickle out some photos to facebook, so feel free to swing on over to http://facebook.com/hike734 and check out…
