• Hermit Trail, Glacier National Park

    31. juli 2024, Canada ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Just for something different, we went for a drive today. And then hiked another trail 😂
    Being the last day Deano is in Revy we drove the 45 minutes up to Glacier National Park. Our legs were pretty done after the past couple mega hikes so Mitch had promised us an "easier" one for today. What we came to realise fairly quickly is that Mitches definition of easy is related to the total time, definitely not the length or elevation profile.

    Not much point complaining though, once we popped out of the tree line and into the alpine the views across the majestic mountains and glaciers made it all worth it.

    We made it to the campground that was settled into an alpine meadow. From there we scaled up another rocky ridge line and came across a Marmot hanging out in the rocks. Surprisingly it didn't seem too shy and posed for a few pics before heading off down the mountain.
