Dave's Montana Backpack trip to Glacier Park

Here's a few pics of Dave's trip with a couple of friends to Glacier Park. They had a great trip and as you can see there was snow on the ground in places. They packed Sun.- Wed. and were gone the week of July 19th -25th 2008. One thing Dave mentioned was that he had to sleep with ear plugs most nights. The campsites were surrounded by waterfalls and they made quite a bit of noise. That's one thing that doesn't get quiet when the sun goes down. The guys had to get permits for each campsite since there were limited campsites sites at each stop. The scenery is breath taking and rivals any set of mountains in the world. Fortunately the weather was agreeable. One night of rain but most days were in the 80's and 90's with nights in the 50's. Dave used a tarp as a shelter. He said it worked really well except for the night of rain when he left a boot sticking out a little bit.
Now Dave is cruising the internet trying to find a way to make his pack lighter.
