Glacier National Park

We slept in and didn’t wake up until 9:45 due to getting in 2:30am from the Star Party at Logan Pass the night before. We pretty much had penciled in a rest day once we decided to do the star party. Because of this, we missed breakfast but I went downstairs and got plates for us to heat up our left over pizza from Thursday evening on and we had that for breakfast!

We decided to venture out and explore Whitefish about noon or so. In our exploration, we ran across the train station that had a small local museum in it so we explored that. We then sat on the station’s platform and watched a double stack train pull in and get a fresh crew. Emily was still tired so I dropped her off at the hotel for more rest while I headed to West Glacier to watch the double stack roll through and also pick up a shirt at the Glacier National Park Conservatory Store in the old West Glacier train station. I picked up gas on the way to West Glacier and still beat the train there by 30 minutes.

I made it back to the hotel a little after 3:00 and Emily and I headed downtown Whitefish to shop a bit, where we got stuff for our parents and family. We grabbed ice cream at Sweet Peaks and were back in the room by 4:30 or so to rest again. We headed for dinner at Great Northern Bar & Grill which did have good burgers. We again went for ice cream at Sweet Peaks (double ice cream day!) then back to the hotel to crash in prep for the next day.

Safe Travels,
