Re: Glaciers & Geysers - Forever West

Wow! Never knew USA had such beautiful vistas to offer.

The sun beating down has probably not helped in capturing the place well, did you click most of the snaps late morning and noon?

Thank you for sharing the pictures, pls continue with your trips to such places.

Cheers

Thank you Vindywheels. USA is such a big country and offers so much outdoors to enjoy. If interested, you might as well take a look at my other travelogue from Colorado trip here: http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/travel...ravelogue.html

Re: Glaciers & Geysers - Forever West

Going on boat rides and hiking offers some spectacular views of the park which are not seen from road drives. Boat ride on St Mary's lake also has an optional 1 mile hike to St Mary's falls.

Some views from boat:
