The news last night here in Colorado warned us to harvest apples and other fruit from out trees, that it attracts bears. Maybe your bear had found some tasty berries. I am wondering about a neighbor's tree that has been dropping large crab apples into our yard. Our dog likes to eat them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-from-glacier-national-park#post-1728970 Mon, 19 Sep 2016 00:07:17 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1728970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous photos!

Ever since you posted about it the first time, I've been wanting to go! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-from-glacier-national-park#post-1726664 Tue, 13 Sep 2016 14:22:37 +0000 JAileen 1726664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful pictures! I'm glad you had a good time. I spent three summers there, working at Lake McDonald Lodge, so it feels like home to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-from-glacier-national-park#post-1726653 Tue, 13 Sep 2016 13:20:45 +0000 Janet 1726653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! Your pictures make me want to go back. I only had 3 full days there, by myself, so I didn't do lengthy hikes (I am in better shape now than back then and could hike more now), but there is so much to see even on short hikes there. It looks like you got some great experiences. And you're guaranteed at least a day or two of rain whenever you go there, so it looks like you were fortunate to get some clear weather while you were there.</p> <p>Coincidentally, I looked back at my photo archives yesterday and decided to see where I was six years ago on that date, when I did a big cross-country tour. I was in Glacier! I found three photos I had previously not paid much attention to -- details in the stream beds with the water and colorful rock. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-from-glacier-national-park#post-1726646 Tue, 13 Sep 2016 12:51:25 +0000 RobinF 1726646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!
