Today we drove from Waterton Alberta to St Mary MT, which was about an hour drive. Did a short, relatively easy hike to three falls, Baring, St Mary and Virginia. Warm weather, probably about 80 but a good breeze. Pretty hazy when you would look in the distant but right at the falls it was fine. Staying at the St Mary Lodge right outside the park entrance. Basic, but again, all I need is a bed and a bath, and maybe a beer.... read more

St. Mary, MT, 26 juillet - Depuis la côte, nous avons repris la route vers l'Est en direction de la vallée de l'Okanagan. Les paysages semi-désertiques défilent à nouveau et la chaleur est au rendez-vous. Nous campons à Oroville, sur les rives du lac Osoyoos, tout juste au Sud de la frontière. On nous raconte qu'ici aussi les deux derniers mois furent horribles et qu'une pluie tout à fait inhabituelle dans la région n'a cessé de tomber. Les cultures fruitières tapissent le fond de cette vallée jusqu'au bout du lac Okanagan et les cerises et les pêches nous régalent. Après deux jours de farniente, nous nous dirigeons vers les Rocheuses et le parc Glacier. L'Immense lac Flathead, au pied des montagnes, est absolument magnifique et la baignade dans ses eaux limpides au petit matin fut un ... read more

The sky was mostly sunny when we got up, so we took the van back up to Lake Louise to see if the mountains were less obscured by the clouds - - no such luck. So, we packed up and headed for the states with a short stop in Banff. It was much nicer than I remembered. The girls bought a couple patches and we were on our way south. We went through Calgary - - a huge town of over a million people, tall buildings, lots of subburbs, and horrendous traffic. The roads were not well signed and we wound up at a Walmart for lunch instead of on Rt 2 running south. Had about a 20 minute wait to get through US Customs at the border - - we had some apples that had ... read more

St. Mary, Montana Saturday September 5 Saturday we drive back to the Park Café for a hearty breakfast. It’s now time to leave the park and begin our journey home. We cross the “Road to the Sun” again and head back to Spokane and tomorrows flight home. We drive the eastern shore of Flathead Lake and get some different views of Montana. We’ve really enjoyed our trip to the Pacific North West and have seen a wonderful mix of city, mountains, plains, lakes and National Parks. I’ll really cherish this trip. ... read more
