| Leaving Banff, next stop was Glacier National Park in Montana. The drive took us through Calgary. And yes, we ended up exactly where you expected us to spend a couple hours for lunch. |
 |
| Turns out, we were in Calgary on the opening weekend of the famed Calgary Stampede. That explained why everyone was walking around with cowboy hats. |
 |
| The Saddledome. And another Olympic host city visited. |

| The outdoor grounds of the Calgary Stampede. |
 |
| Crossing back INTO the United States. |
 |
| We entered Montana along the eastern edge of Glacier National Park. We took a couple hours to explore the Many Glaciers area of the park. |
 |
| After setting up camp at the Fish Creek Campground, Onions and I took a drive at dusk to look for animals....hoping for bears. |
 |
| Alas, we didn't see any bears, but this picture of the snags from a previous fire was pretty neat. |
 |
| The next morning, needing to do laundry, we went to Columbia Falls for the morning to clean our clothes and then decided to head to Whitefish Mountain. We took the ski lift up the mountain for the views. |
 |
| Looking south over the Flathead Valley. |

| Whitefish Lake |

| Looking east to the mountains of Glacier. |
 |
| There are lots of summer attractions at Whitefish Mountain, one of them the Alpine Slide!!! |
 |
| Totally fun! |
