Summer weather is returning today after 2 days of badly needed rain. Hopefully that dose of moisture will keep the forest fires at bay this year.
Hiking in Glacier National Park: We did the Apgar Lookout trail on Sunday. Felt like quite an accomplishment! 2.8 miles of 1900' elevation gain. Awesome

Big News: 2 grocery store openings in 1 week! If you don't live in our valley, this is indeed big news. Safeway in Whitefish has been closed since last September to do a huge remodel and expansion. I visited the store yesterday. The highlight for me was the fresh fish section.

Glacier National Park plowing is proceeding after a big dump of snow last week slowed progress in getting the Going to the Sun highway open. It is always fun to see r.v.s driving through Kalispell on the way to the park in May when the road is not open all

After a winter of snowfall in enormous proportions, Glacier National Park is expected to open on June 13. This date of course, is subject to the weather from now until then. This summer the Going to the Sun road will be impacted by the continuing construction that was started last fall.
