We got up early, ate our muffins and drank our French Press and got on our way early. The weather was amazing. Forecast was clear and mid-70s. So we made our way into the park.
We arrived at Logan Pass parking lot. Full. Drove around about six times to try and see if anyone was leaving. No one. Probably too early. So we went to Plan B (if you know us and vacations, we are experts on Plan Bs). We elected to drive the road to the west, stop wherever we wanted and take the day doing that.
We decided to hike Avalanche Lake Trail. We have discovered we are “strolling hikers”. We enjoy the journey on a trail and aren’t the type who have to conquer the trail.
After the hike, we were careful to stay in the boundaries of the park, so we started working our way back to the east. We decided to try Logan Pass the next day. Still pretty amazing views and vistas on our journey back.
After our meandering back, at the end of our day, we decided to try a Mexican restaurant in East Glacier, Serrano’s. There aren’t many options for food in this area and, frankly, most of our food up to this point was average at best. We were pleasantly surprised at this one, though. We each got the Taco Board and a Margarita and both were excellent!
We decided we would have to return another night. And we decided to go to Many Glacier the next day.
