Day 13, East Glacier, Montana



What an awesome day. After a hearty breakfast of apple pancakes, oatmeal, and sausages, we had our own church service at Bison Creek Ranch. Emma and Arek led worship songs and Stewart gave a message. We then had a time of prayer in small groups followed by a time of sharing about our experiences with the trip and people we’ve met along the way. After church, Paul and Becky Luedtke, Stewart, Arek and I rented an SUV and headed for Glacier National Park. What a beautiful place, We had our lunch overlooking a beautiful lake at a place called Two Medicine. We hiked up to a waterfall then drove as far as we could go up the Going-to-the-Sun Road. It was closed about 3 miles from Logan Pass due to the heavy snow that has blocked the road. Paul, Becky, Arek and I started walking up the closed section of road. We ended up walking all the way to Logan Pass. Along the way, we spotted many Mountain Sheep, waterfalls, snow and beautiful mountain scenery. We drove the SUV back to East Glacier, turned it in, then had a nice relaxing dinner at a Mexican restaurant in town.
