Finally a Canada post! First stop: Glacier

These pictures popped up in reverse order so I will not be going in chronological order on this post. This picture was at the end of our first day in glacier. There was a pretty gorge formed by a little stream that we hiked around. We saw our first bare there (no, that's not a typo). This is Hidden Lake. We hiked to it on our first day. (That was the hike that gave Violet the killer sunburn. Pictures of that later.) But it was so beautiful! There were little streams all around the trail and mountain goats would walk right up to you.

This was the ice field that we hiked across on our way to Hidden Lake. I stopped keeping track of how many times I slipped and fell on my butt after the third time.

We stopped at these rapids just after getting into the park. Glacial water is famously blue, as shown in this picture.

Brandon took this picture when he woke up after the first night. We camped out on the side of the road since we got there so late. One of Brandon's brothers scared the crap out of me in the middle of the night when he was walking around, but neither of them remembered it the next morning. As you can tell, Violet did very well sleeping outside.
