Swiftcurrent Lake Loop
 |
This 2.6 mile trail is completely flat and
circles Swiftcurrent Lake. The trail zig zags through the wood so
that, even though there were others on the trail, we felt quite alone. |
 |
The clouds blew in from the north as we were
driving to Many Glacier for our day of hiking. Temperatures dropped,
along with a little rain. So we stopped at the hotel gift shop to
purchase warmer clothing because we foolishly left our sweatshirts at the
hotel room. |
 |
At every trailhead, bear warning signs are
posted. They say stuff like "You are entering grizzly
country" and then list all these precautions you need to take.
The signs also say "Bears attack for no reason. Following these
precautions is no guarantee of your safety." |
 |
Needless to say, we made a lot of noise as we
hiked. |
