Highline Trail

Just thinking back to our Montana trip two months ago!  I forgot to mention our all time favorite hike in Glacier National Park!  The Highline Trail!  It was breathtaking!  An almost 12 mile hike in higher elevation with amazingly breathtaking views!!!  We would do it again and recommend it highly though the last four miles were downhill and we got caught in a very bad thunderstorm and hailstorm.  I don't think I have ever been that nervous in a storm as we were coming through burned out forest- not much shade or shelter.  Our dear friend Anne too was having a lot of trouble with her knees on the way down as well and so between the knees and the thunder- it was a mess.  I think they were the longest 4 miles ever!  We were soaked when we got to the bottom and very cold!  But alas, great memories and a hike we will not soon forget. 






Anne said this is "Bear Grass."  Kinda interesting isn't it.
