After a day of riding the bicycle in frigid temps we wanted to see what hiking opportunities there were. A 13 mile hike that the guide pamphlet rated as moderately stressful and isolated seemed like the way to go. After a good hour of hiking and taking some nice pics we ran into an obstacle:
The grizzly did seem to move up the slope and away from the trail after a while so we ventured even a bit closer until……..we saw another grizzly eating behind a tree. At that point we decided to abort the hike and leave them to their lunch.
We decided to take two more hikes, each one around 4 miles. We hoped we could still share the park with its wildlife and be a bit safer at the same time!
We did employ the scooter to help us get from our second hike up to Logan Pass to find the beginning of the trail that went to Hidden Lake.
Here are some other nice pictures we took on the way back to Logan Pass.
And finally, a nice panorama shot of St. Mary Lake near our campsite.
