For our last morning in Glacier we decided to go back and visit the Avalanche Creek area. John wanted to hike to Avalanche Lake and I wanted to shoot the gorge some more. So we each did our own thing. John's hike would have taken several hours, so he decided to only hike that trial for an hour and a half. I made sure he has the bear bell so he could make as much noise as possible and there were a lot of other hikers out too so I wasn't too worried. Thought the next morning we did read about a bear attack elsewhere in the park of a hiker from Minnesota who was alone, armed with a bell and bear spray and still was attacked!
We also made a pit stop on the way out to another turnout area along McDonald Creek where we hasn't stopped previously.
Since it had rained the night before there was a really large mist/fog bank that was rolling in a providing nice clouds.
This was literally the last picture of the trip!! We kept saying all we we'd get the touristy shot in front of the park sign and literally pulled off as we were exiting! After this picture we went into Kalispell and Whitefish and fell in love - they are really cute, especially Whitefish - that is where we want to retire!!
