Glacier National Park is one of the most beautiful places we have ever visited! Melissa and I spent four days in the park back in August of 2015. Just like today, the park was being affected by multiple wildfires and in fact, we had to leave our last night's lodging because of a fire on the next ridge over.
The smoke and fire did not, however, tarnish our impression of this magnificent park. From the mountains to the lakes, streams, waterfalls, wildlife and old lodges, there is something for everyone!
The bummer is, of course, that the glaciers are melting and won't be around much longer. So go visit now! You will not be disappointed!!!
