After hiking to and from Avalanche Lake, we thought about just lounging around the campsite for a while, but instead we rallied and drove up to Logan Pass for another easy hike.
Driving up Going to the Sun Road, the main road from one side of Glacier NP to the other. You can see the course of the road winding its way up the valley.
It's amazing that ordinary people are trusted to drive on this road.

Hiking along a boardwalk route off the pass.
This rock was once underwater, and the sandy ripple marks were geologically preserved and are exposed today.
A gang of mountain goats came along.
They had no qualms about walking right up the trail among us tourists.
One goat decided to enjoy the view...actually, he seems to be licking salts or oils off the handrail.

Hidden Lake. 100 years ago it was apparently much more barren, but warming temps and receding glaciers have allowed coniferous forests to come up from below.
Goat.
Baby goat.
Many different colors of rocks.
