flew into spokane wa after a 2 week vacation in the midwest and fetched our rig and drove to bonners ferry id... got a late start after a hellish travel day...
east bound on the us 2 heading to glacier national park...
grubb in troy mt...
west glacier entrance...
we were running late... so off to going to the sun road to check out the sights...
some amazing country with lotts o waterfalls...
nearing logan pass... we had just had two 15 minute stops each for one lane road traffic...
traffic was really jammed up with folks looking at the goats...
more later...

st marys lake...
confluence of the st marys river... wow... beautiful place...
buffalo burger...
heading to many glacier...
this place is one of mother earths better efforts...
pushing on... really needed an earlier start... was quickly running out of light...
stayed at the pine mountain motel in east glacier... a delightful place... but everything was buttoned up when we got there... bug eye motobrick ready to roll now in search of cloven hoofed beasts of the wilderness...
goats...
there you go... thats all i got for now...

Johnny this might be your finest work yet!
And I noticed your Bagster holes are perfectly lined up! The Bug eyed brick never looked better!
And keep the Glacier porn off this family forum, ok?
glacier entrance... suuuureeee

Great pictures of an awesome place!
Here's my favorite GNP photo from when I was there in June of '97. Been too long!

Above and beyond even your best previous efforts, j o. A new bar has been set.
I think I noticed something, though. Check out my Bagster.
Yours:
See how mine covers more toward the front and has two additional straps?. I think they sent you the wrong tank cover. They did the same to me, then replaced it when I showed them photos. I'd call CIMA (I assume you got it from them) and have them send you the D-cup.
Oh, wait. Maybe you prefer that barely-restrained look...
That's worth another view:
Oh, hell. How 'bout a couple more times:

LMFAO!!!!
Klink....I have the same cover as Johnny and Drake, which makes your droopy-eyed looking bag the odd man out.

Second to the Himalayas maybe, GNP is the most beautiful place on earth IMO. I've done a couple of solo weeklong backcountry hikes there - f'n AMAZING - except for running into a grizzer and her cub one morning. Lots of hungry trout there too.

Somehow I feel those two breakfast shots were for me. Johnny knows I LOVE breakfast. Ok, maybe the first one was just for me and the second one was for everyone... 
Those are some awesome shots of GNP, Johnny. I hope it's not raining next time I go there...
