...Glacier National Park... the biggest little mountains in the world.

President's day weekend combined with a couple of job interview's in Northwest Montana were merely an excuse travel to the Flathead, and GNP. While road closures, snow, and death dealing avalanche chutes prevented us from getting into the best of the park, the wintery isolation and scenery was still awesome. Snowshoeing and small town bars are perhaps my two favorite winter activities, (though as my friend Kevin discovered, locals don't take kindly to pool-sharks) and this weekend was full of both. I did not bring my camera with me the first day, but here are some pics from the North Fork.


Peaks whose name I do not yet know but intend to learn before vanquishing them.


Polebridge: where mountain men and hippies go to crossbreed.


Why I wish I could heli-ski.


Wapiti


Little Switzerland


In conclusion, the North Fork is ugly. Please Don't come here.
