Thanks to Tom doing his sundance jig first thing today the sun was shining all day long and we enjoyed a spectacular day. Thanks Montana! Thanks Tom!
Our friends Karl and Barb Meyer stopped by this morning to firm up our rendezvous in Hungry Horse tomorrow when Finn Dog gets here. THESE peeps are true outdoor folk and could be river or equestrian guides at any outfitter. Can’t wait to hear more of their stories tomorrow night when Finn get here.
First stop was the post office to see if our package arrived and indeed it did. Front panniers, warm gloves and a care package (daughter to parents instead of the other way around). Thanks Anne, Gordon and John! We especially love the chocolate covered Oreos.
Once the bags were on, we pit stopped for some more coffee, bagels, oatmeal and peanut butter. #biketravelstaples
Then off to ride toward Polebridge. We’ve been there before by car and knew we wouldn’t make it all the way since the last 14 miles are gravel. Nevertheless we opted for a short ride with a few hills to keep us honest.
Oh and we got a “pass”. Logan Pass that is. It is OPEN to thru bikers. So up and over we will go on Sunday, weather permitting to Canada.
We picnicked by Lake McDonald planned our border crossing then went back to our campsite to get organized to leave tomorrow for Hungry Horse and make dinner.
We will return to GNP on Sunday to hit Logan Pass.
And BTW we just heard the weather forecast for tomorrow. Another sundance is needed. 🤣
Keep Calm and Pedal On 
This is my favorite picture of you guys so far. You look well rested. Question, however, once global warming ruins the Earth and the glaciers melt, will the name of the park change to “National Park”?

Lol I’m not sure but as chilly as it’s been they might not be melting soon. Have fun at SMB and Frampton and think of your old sister when you’re there. 🎶

Loved the dancing. Are you sure you two weren’t the backup to some Motown group in the sixties?

So glad to to hear that Going to the Sun has opened. (The NPS site says they are still plowing at the pass??) I hope it’s just for bicycles so far as it can get kinda tight. I love reading about the huckleberry cobbler – one of my favorites! Blessings

Oh no! I think you need to get three more from UT to top out at $50. We still have a longggg way to go and that will give him something to plan for. 😊
