Big Foot Mike,
I didn't think about Big Foot (scary thought!) but it did occur to me that any creature that leaves LOTS of big piles along the road is not a creature that I want to meet while I'm taking photos!

Sure am enjoying this. Just caught up a few days worth. How long did you plan this? Are you always this thorough? Love the commentary and pics. A grand adventure to be shared. Love Carole
Fauna... I feel I must inform you that you have seen 9 Moose and 5 Elk... Just for the record, the pics in this post today are Elk. Thought you would want to know. I hope you have had fun, sounds like you have... Happy Trails.
glacier rock I tried to find a date on the rock but couldn't find one. All I found was "Made in China". :-) The rock is probably as old as the earth and has been buried under the ice for many thousands of years until the glacier scooped it up and left it for Kirk this Spring.
North Pole Yep, it's the southern one! Lot's of people send stuff there at Christmas time to get the North Pole cancellation stamp put on their letters and packages.
mooses Scott,
Mama moose definitely was giving me the eye. Next time I'll be more cautious. Good to hear from you and glad that you're following the blog! Later!

Tip Top Shape! I'm talking about YOU, son! Because the main gate to the State Park was closed you had to park a half mile away and then walk UPHILL to get to the mine site - - - and then you hiked on Gold Cord Trail "up a steep mountain" - - - followed by another hike on April Bowl Trail -- and all ON THE SAME DAY! Wow! Did you hire a trainer to get ready for this adventure? Your Mom is impressed! Lots of love!
Definitely your best side! ;-) Are you shooting jpgs or something like Camera Raw? When you get all finished and pick your most, mostest favorite, send it on in the highest possible resolution. Niels bought a new 'toy' and it will print up to 44" wide and however long. He did a 40" x 11' photo panorama just to try it out, pic from our Grand Canyon trip this spring. I'll make you a BIG picture! ;-)

Nice meeting you Jack Jack, it was really nice meeting you. I hope you are having a wonderful trip. Everyone knows it is the people that makes the difference. I hope you have a safe trip back and that we can meet up again before you leave.
Peace,
