  • My Favorite Hikes in Glacier National Park

    skipper (Skipper )
    Not one hike will lead you astray of beauty in Glacier National Park. If you see signs cautioning of Bear activity. Please heed the warnings and pick a different trail. Humans are the most dangerous factors of the bears natural environments. Give them space and don't leave any food on the trails. Leave no Trace. Enjoy some of the most beautiful places on earth, but be respectful and follow trail rules. Glacier National Park had over 150 Glaciers in 1850. Now there are less than 25 remaining. These are truly once in a lifetime experiences.

  • Ghost Towns in the Wild West

    chiefseeker (Jody Vandergriff)
    Ghost Town hunting is one of my favorite activities in the west. There are so many abandoned towns with endless stories to tell from times past. Of course, ghost towns aren't just a source of historical curiosity; they can also be the centerpiece of an unforgettable road trip. Many ghost towns are located in close proximity to one another, making it easy to plan a multi-day tour that takes you from one town to the next. Along the way, you can soak up the stunning natural scenery of the West, from the rugged peaks of the Rockies to the sweeping vistas of the Mojave Desert.
