East Glacier National Park

Hi Again - we spent two days at East Glacier. Its a lot less traveled than the west side. On the way into the park we had a bear cross the road in front of us. I had to stop the truck so I would not hit it and I didn't get a good picture. Ugly bear. It appeared to be loosing it fur ?????? Then after we arrived and set up the trailer we went exploring. We ran into a Ranger, Kelly Lynch, we ended up doing a 5 mile hike with her. We also seen a cow moose. The next day we did a 10 miler with her. We saw a cow and calf Elk and 1 deer. But what views and beautiful fields of flowers. It stormed the last night there. The first rain we have seen in weeks. We are officially on our way home as of yesterday. We should be home around the 10th ??. We arrived at Devils Tower in Wyoming. Do any of you remember the movie ?
I'm not telling. We are going to run around the Tower in the morning. Then head towards the Bad Lands in South Dakota. We want to stop in Deadwood...but..its bike week in Sturgist. We'll see.
I will post pictures of the Tower on the next posting.
Take Care Tom & Karen
