Glacier park is definatly the best place to visit in Montana, besides maybe the hot springs that are here and there. Did you drive on the "going to the sun" road?
I found these pictures, they aren't mine, but Glacier park is really a magical and breath taking place.


Maybe that's the waterfall?
Yes, "Going to the Sun Road" was it! And I stayed at the Glacier Park Hotel, where the sewer and water pipes are visible above your room. The big solid Ponderosa pine posts they have as the building's main supports were very impressive. In my travels throughout the West Coast, I have not seen any pine anywhere near the size of those tree trunks. And I remember having breakfast at the hotel back porch where I could se the mountains as a backdrop like the ones in your picture. And also the golf course. I have pictures of the place, only they're buried in my files somewhere "safe". So safe that I can't find them. LOL.

And that's the waterfall next to the road. So, so, pretty!!! And to the right as you exit from the airport in Kalispell, there is an Italian restaurant that serves a mean pizza! The dough is awesome!

Oh! and the weather we're having here in Seattle? A co-worker has just named a "new" month - the month of "Juneuary"!
