adventures with a dog and an airstream
We visited St Mary in early September 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. After super hiking in Theodore Roosevelt National Park and a subpar experience in Great Falls, MT, we finally landed in the Glacier area! We first visited...
We visited Great Falls on Labor Day, 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Edited because apparently I’ve offended people: We were in town for less than a day, so obviously we don’t know the town at all or what...
This post is part of our pre-trip planning for our big trip in Fall 2022. HERE IS OUR POST-TRIP RETROSPECTIVE! [We’ve updated the plan since this post and our route looks pretty different now!] We are freshly home from our...

Glacier National Park was incredible, but we were ready for fewer people and more hiking with Bugsy, so we relocated a bit to the west to hit a different section of Flathead National Forest. Two neighboring towns appealed to us...
