Must See: Montana Fall Road Trip - 2022

Wild Goose Overlook - St. Mary's Lake - East Side Going to the Sun Road - Glacier National Park Fall is like the blissful sunset of a beautiful day. The colors of the year blazing into brilliant reds and oranges. The weather holding out the last vestiges of warmth. And all the world seems to be curling up over a cozy mug of hot chocolate in the waning light. Just before the cold night of winter settles in. I love fall. And everything that it brings with it. Especially, I love the mountains in fall. How they can go from striking to moody in a matter of moments. And, (even) most especially, I love Glacier National Park in the fall.

Road Trip Landscapes: Mountain West & National Parks No. 1

 

Badlands National Park

We over here at BKP needed some air. So we took a road trip. A 2,500 mile road trip! Through five national parks and through some absolutely incredible landscapes. We found prairie dogs and an elk with a rack the size of a nice Christmas tree. Catch the whole trip here on the blog.

We had to check it out. It was hot and dry. and we had little water. But hike we did. Over and around beautiful limestone spires with generations of striations etching history into the rock.

On a day of over 95 degrees, it was sweltering. Then the clouds rolled in. And it became merely intolerable.

Still, some of the most incredible landscapes around. Well worth it.
