In the company of mountain goats and big horn sheep

Two Medicine, lush, green, lake dotted valley floors that seem to splash up the rugged mountainsides that surround them. We checked out this section of Glacier including one of their signature hikes, Dawson Pass. The pass is at 7500 feet and the views into the two valleys are spectacular. We found ourselves looking down to see the sheep and goats. That was cool. They certainly are better adapted to this terrain, the climb (2450 feet gain) and altitude than we are. We are inching up our hike lengths to build stamina for the Grand Canyon hike. This one was 13.7 miles. We were pretty whipped at the end of the day but recovered nicely by morning.
