I hiked over Swiftcurrent Pass and back into the valley, to end my hike of Glacier
National Park, but I wasn't ready to leave. On the way to the trailhead to
reunite with my car, I took the 11.4-mile out-and-back trip to Grinnell Glacier,
bringing the day's total to 21 miles. It felt good to know I can still do a
21-mile day.

The extra miles to
Grinnell Glacier paid off. The hike there was beautiful enough to make it worthwhile, but when I climbed the final hill to look down at the glacier, I found
myself in the middle of a herd of Bighorn Sheep.
There are days when I feel like I'm living the best life on Earth.
