Day 43 - 5/14/04
Columbia Falls, MT to Whitefish, MT
12 miles
I rode into Whitefish, where I could rent a car, and then toured around
Glacier National Park for the day. The park was quite
scenic. Unfortunately the main mountain pass, Going-to-the-Sun
road, is not fully open. So, I drove as far as I could up the
western side, then drove all the way around the park and up the eastern
side as far as I could go. The eastern side of the mountains have
more snow and are more barren than the west side. It was cloudy
most of the day and rained part of the time, but it was still
great. If the weather holds I should enter Canada over the
weekend.
