Glaciers and Giants

Perley Rock Trail
approx. 8 hours rt
Glacier National Park


 A long trail through the serious forest
boulder hopping through a rockslide of pikas
moraine walking
heather meadows of marmots
steep rocky slopes
streaming waterfalls
glaciers of awe





Avalanche Crest Trail
Approx. 4 1/2 hrs rt
Glacier National Park


a long, long, long time going up
past intimidating cedars and grandfather hemlocks
you will enjoy the small meadow with it's bridge and stream
a perfect pond for a quick dip.
a meadow of marmots, fat and whistling
and then a short steep slope up to the ridge
the sun shines hot
