Glacier National Park

Today is our first full day in Glacier National Park.  It is very hot and hazy.  Not a good picture taking day!   Due to the hot weather we decided to do a short hike.  We hiked to St Mary and Virgina Falls.  It is a short 3.6 miles roundtrip.  We had to get out our bear spray! 

After the falls hike we drove back to Sunrift Gorge and proceeded to hike to Baring Falls and Sun Point Nature Trail which provides overlook of St Mary's Lake.  It was short and enjoyable!  We will return later when the weather isn't hazy and we can get better pictures of the lake views.
