Glacier Park Trail

You feel of the gravel under your shoes and the smell of the dust hovering in the air.  You feel the strain in your calves as you ascend the trail.  Looking out across the distance, the mountains rise from the valley with sharp snow peaks.   Wild Beargrass, glacier lilies, and paintbrush dot the sweeping slopes.  In front of you, the trail climbs steadily, rising to the sky.  Rocks underfoot, you slip on a lose rock.  Catching your balance, you tread forward.
