After a great week in Fernie, BC we headed south again into Montana where we stayed in Columbia Falls for several days. The Columbia Falls RV Resort near Glacier National Park in Montana was a great place to stay days. The next morning, we headed out to Polebridge for one of their famous Bear Claws. Polebridge is a small, remote town located near the northwest entrance of Glacier National Park and is famous for its Bear Claws, a sweet and flaky pastry made with layers of croissant dough and filled with cinnamon and sugar.
Unfortunately, we were unable to get into Bowman Lake as the park was full, so we headed to Apgar at the south end of Lake McDonald. It was a beautiful day with clear blue skies, and the scenery was breathtaking. We took a stroll along the lake and admired the towering peaks and crystal-clear waters.

Going to the Sun Road
From Apgar, we decided to drive the world-famous Going to the Sun Road. This scenic drive is a must-see for anyone visiting Glacier National Park. The road winds its way through the park, offering stunning views of the mountains and valleys below. We took the drive as far as Logan Pass, and even though we have done it many times before, it never ceases to amaze us. Along the way we stopped a lovely McDonald Lodge for a snack and to take in the lake views.
At Logan Pass, we took a short walk in the meadows surrounded by towering peaks and a sea of wildflowers. The fresh mountain air and breathtaking scenery made for a truly unforgettable experience. After our walk, we headed back to Whitefish for a delicious sushi dinner at the Wasabi Sushi Bar.
