The Adventurous Duo

Toon: I think it’s better to just travel around and we can probably go to the Park tomorrow and have a picnic. We forgot the utensils anyway. Me: Nah, I think we can still make it, and furthermore, I have booked it for 24 hours and it starts today at 4 pm, so why waste? Toon: Oh, okay then. (Long Pause) Why don’t we just make some sausages and we can probably grill the rest tomorrow morning so for tonight, we have ample time, and we can go to the Butterfly Museum before going to the park. Me: Yes, sure, so is it really that good? You have been there in D.C., right? Toon: Ya, it’s all right, it’s just like a miniature forest inside and butterflies all over you. Me: Let me check that on YouTube. (Watching some videos) It seems all right, I still would like to buy the utensils, probably some cheap ones as we already have them at home, just forgot to bring, and we can do these after coming back from the picnic if we have time, and I think we will.    ...

How many different types of animals did you see when you travelled in Glacier National Park?  We were lucky enough to see bears, white tail deers, mountain goats and bighorn sheeps. What we learnt from our experience is you have to either start early in morning or stay tuned till late evening to see those beautiful animals. In our case both happened because we wanted to do camping every day of our stay and it’s hard to reserve online if you have planned your trip at the very last minute. So we opted for First Come First Serve. Every campground in Glacier National Park has half of their campsites available on FCFS but you have to be there really early to get a site. For example, our first preference was St. Mary Campground while we were travelling from East Glacier towards Logan Pass which was kind of impossible to get as it was very popular and our trip was on federal holiday weekend. So our next preference was Rising Sun Campground where we reached around 7.30 am and the...

The Mesmerizing View of Avalanche Lake @ Glacier National Park Finally I have started my Travel Blog and the temptation came from a Hiking/Camping Trip to Glacier National Park, Montana. What I saw and what I felt in this trip has been a lifetime experience and beyond my imagination. Mountains, serene lakes, glaciers, wild flowers, abundance of wild animals and what not. The way I was moved by this trip, is why, I have decided to share my experiences in series.  One of the most exciting and thrilling hiking was Avalanche Lake Hike. It was 2 miles moderate hike (according to me) one way. You might have a little trouble as the trail is a bit steep sometimes. My friend Sameer and I were little late that day and reached "Trail of the Cedars" around 5 in the evening. We enjoyed the easy hike in the woods of Cedar. Oh, those trees were beautiful and Tall. And in between, we saw a trail going upwards in a bit steep area which is the trail towards Avalanche La...
