An Almost Perfect Day in Grizzly Country

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Howard celebrated his birthday last month amidst hoary marmots, mountain goats, and big horn sheep on the rocky talus slopes of Glacier National Park in Montana. Every year since meeting in 1993, Karen and Howard have made it a tradition to hike in the park and even spent their honeymoon in the Glacier backcountry. Unfortunately, Karen came down with a nasty flu just before the planned celebratory excursion this summer and was not able to go hence the “almost” perfect day. Howard and his three Montana friends – Jeff, Chris, and Natasha, held their own on the 10.5 mile blister burner and had an amazing day. Plus they were lucky to see tons of big game wildlife while not having to use their bear spray. Get your nature fix for the day and check out all the pictures.
