Your pictures were beautiful but last picture was funny. We were fortunate to take a boat tour on that lake. It was the last one of the day and there were only four of us. The guy was a student and took extra time to talk about the places we were going by including Goose Island.
ReplyDeleteFabulous vistas! And that "rare mountain doat" wow ...were you ever lucky to catch him in action!!
ReplyDeleteWe have beautiful vistas like that too ... we were just on Curtis Road Honeoye, NY at a lure coursing event. Glory really went wild for the lure! And tuckered herself right out!
LOVE the water photos...and the rare black mountain doat! Too cute!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are very much like mine here in CO. I think I am going to like MT!!
WOW, what a gorgeous park! Hopefully one day my husband and I will get to visit this area. I bet the beauty of it all just takes your breath away. Lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteGreat job with the photos, Sue! Boy, there really is a lot of snow. Jackson Glacier has twice as much snow as when we saw it. I really enjoy the glaciers. It is sad that they are melting so quickly.
ReplyDeleteThe water was really flowing. I can just imagine how loud it was after hearing the water rush in Rocky Mountain NP. You picked a great time to visit. Glad you made it all the way there!
Travel safely!
