going to blow our tent away, we woke up and got on the road to hike at
Many Glacier.
We took the Swiftcurrent Trail, which was very much bear country. We
were not disappointed when some hikers coming towards us told us that
there was a grizzly bear ahead. A ranger was up ahead on the trail and
the bear was gone but we scampered up the switchback trail to a spot
that was higher. There he was, peaceful as could be, munching out on
grass and huckleberries. This huge animal had no interest in anything
other than eating his vegetation. We were about 200 yards from him,
too far for any good photo opportunities, but close enough to observe
his beauty and power.
On the way back to home base (we picked a campsite in Many Glacier) we
paused at the river along the end of a waterfall and sat for awhile. I
did a tabata workout, using all the rocks to train with. Kimberli
meditated and did some yoga. There is no feeling of rush or hurry ...
no point A or B , just wherever the road wants to take us...
More great fruit along the journey...
