Glacier National Park for 25th
Spent four days in and on the edge of Glacier National Park for our 25th. We stayed at the Izaak Walton Inn in Essex, MT, a wonderful old railroad lodge that is now a XC ski lodge with groomed trails. We skied their trails in addition to two days backcountry in Glacier loving our new skis. Most guests take the train from Minnesota or Seattle area, and the train actually stops at this remote lodge. Best of all: no tv's or phones in the place so they retain the charm of the past and you can really get away. Definately check this place out if you love this kind of getaway. And...see this park before it's called the park formerly known as Glacier (the park's glaciers are receding).
This is one of our photos. We put together a short slideshow that brings you along on our backcountry skis to show you what this spectacular national park is like in the winter: Glacier National Park Slideshow Link.
