Three years ago, I hiked up to St. Mary’s Glacier and really
enjoyed it. So when last Saturday I asked myself where I should go to
escape the searing heat, the answer was simple - head to the mountains,
see a glacial lake, and find some snow that never melts. This place is
always a treat for the eyes, so I didn’t think twice. :)
It
was still early in the morning when I pulled into the parking lot, and
found it completely empty. That surprised me. This place is popular, and
8 a.m. isn’t too early for weekend hikers. A few minutes later, I
figured it out: they had recently built another parking lot - and that
one was already full. :)
Anyway, I grabbed my backpack and started walking up the trail. And oh boy… this trail is tough. But it didn’t surprise me, it just reminded me to take it slow and enjoy it as much as possible.
