Highlights Cruised to Elk Island on the Rendezvous for breakfast with Captain Brent at the helm
We had sausage, eggs, rainbow trout, hash browns, pancakes, fruit, hot chocolate, tea and coffee
After breakfast we hiked to the top of the island looking for Elk and we didn’t see any
The lake was covered with ice up until the middle of May. 2-4 feet thick
Elk swim to and from the island and are able to do this because of the air pockets in their fur
Beautiful sights, mountains, water, sky and glaciers
Went to Indian Museum and saw many interesting artifacts
Went back to the campsite for some delicious BBQ ribs on the grill
Headed out to the Swan Lake Trailhead in search of moose
