Just amazing formations and well captured!

In the first photo I can see myself with a nice little cabin next to what looks to be a road on the opposite side of the lake,

Many Glacier was our first NP destination trip after retirement and we went back two years in a row. Lacking an RV at that time, we stayed in the Many Glacier Hotel. Five stories high and they put us on the fifth floor both years. There is no elevator in the hotel. We used to switchback the walk up to the room and you sure learned real fast to take everything you needed for the day with you on the first trip down in the morning. I think they were remodeling the hotel when we came through their last year. Wonder if they are going to put in an elevator. Young college kids used to run your luggage up and down for you. Talk about being in great shape. However, the views from our window were just like these Bob so it was worth it. Thanks for sharing them and bringing back some wonderful memories.

I can see the glaciers nicely shot Bob. I love the mountainous areas in the summer , you get the colors and grandeur along with some decent weather. #1 and #3 are my favorites.

Stan, just make sure you have all your previsions in for winter, this area gets a lot of winter/spring snow. Thanks for looking, always appreciated. Bob

Very nicely done Bob. One has to love being in the mountains, all that fresh air and space. Hey Bob since you're in Montana why not grab your passports and come across into Alberta and go up to Banff?.........Bas

You're right about that Dave, the mountains are so beautiful and with a glacier or two to accent them, they are quite picturesque. We have been having temps in the high 80's, a little cold for us desert rats up there.

thanks Remco, I can see what you are talking about, that is on the Kx, I have a problem with dirt on that one, I'll just blow it out, should be OK, gives me an excuse to go out and shoot again to check it out. Bob
