| Of all the mountains I've climbed, this one blew me away the most—one of those summit views that simply won't quit! As far as you can see in any direction: mountains, mountains, mountains—huge mountains—a sea of monstrous peaks! Wow—on this day Glacier National Park ruled the world! The climb was with the Glacier Mountaineering Society; it was a perfect day for the first three-fourths of it, and then weather moved in quite rapidly, but—most unusual for Glacier—just cold and chill and clouds, with no wind and precipitation. Definitely a front creeping silently in on fingers of fog. So the trek out was in the clouds on Cut Bank and Pitamakan Passes, then settled into a cloudy, cold descent. No matter. It was an absolutely wonderful day! | |
