Ever been to Montana’s Caribbean beach? Ever tasted the famous Huckleberry bear claws at a quaint off-grid town bordering the less traveled Glacier entrance? Ever camped on the river stones of the Flat Head river yards away from the boundary of Glacier National Park? Ever made the rocky climb through the Ten Lakes wilderness or cruise the gorgeous highway alongside Lake Koocanusa? This trip is gonna be awesome!

Sorry folks, I'll be in Rocklin, CA at my mom's 85th birthday that weekend, she wants all her boys there to celebrate the event.

Upon our return, Tiga and I will drive to Glacier Park Lodge, east entrance, for our anniversary. We try to celebrate at a different National Park every year.

Sadly I cant make the trip even though this is basically in my back yard. I might try to see if I can pop in to Kootenai Falls on Sunday, it isn't to far from me.
