After our short visit to Canada, we drove South into Montana and visited Glacier National Park
As the name suggests, the park is noted for its many glaciers!

Because the weather was just beginning to warm up, all of the glaciers were melting causing hundreds of waterfalls all over the park.
A mountain goat!
Sunset in the park.
On our drive from the park to our hostel we drove by a large group of wild horses. Sarah has never been more happy.

Our little grocery store/hostel. Believe it or not it was pretty nice.
The next morning was our first real rain. It didn't last too long though.
We went to go for a hike and this sign was posted directly at the entrance. Note the final line, "To enhance your safety and protect park resources, follow the recommendations posted below," followed by a blank board.
We went on a scenic drive through the park as far as we could go. Part of the road was closed because snow was still being cleared for the summer season. Here are some highlights:
These last two pictures are of the "weeping wall" right at the very top of the drive. It is made up of 5 waterfalls that fall directly onto the road. I appreciated the free car wash...no joke.
