| partners | | This was a quick walk to fill a little time in our afternoon. We'd be doing a driving tour of the eastern part of Glacier, including the Two Medicine Area and East Glacier Lodge. Angela had never been in the Cut Bank road before, so we drove in and found a delightful little primitive campground right on Cut Bank Creek. The trail that left from the parking lot was too tempting to resist, so we strapped on our shoes and headed up. The Cut Bank valley is incredibly scenic and definitely has all the allure of the more popular Glacier trails. This was the one hike that I knew I'd have to travel all the way back up here to do again - this time, in it's entirety, up to Triple Divide Pass and Triple Divide Peak. (The peak is the only place in North America where three major watersheds meet: the East and West Continental Divide and the Hudson Watershed).
We didn't see any bears, but that was probably due to the fact that I had made up a bear-prevention-Irish-tune just for the occasion. That and the fact that we were stopping every 5 feet to photograph another flower, vista or cloud. It was fantastic! |
